Institute TOMS took part in an annual contest “Russian Mining Award” which is informally called “Mining Oscar”. The contest is aimed at an independent evaluation and promotion of the best achievements in various fields of mining and processing industry.
In October 2023, Institute TOMS participated in the 19th Mining Forum MINEX Russia 2023 held in Moscow
Institute TOMS became a title sponsor of the International Conference “Plaksin Readings – 2023” which was held in Moscow on October 2nd – 5th.
September 11, 2023, the President of Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, took part in launching two landmark mining projects. They are Stage II of the gold plant within Pavlik mining and processing complex, and the concentrator plant of Udokan mining and metallurgical complex. Both projects were implemented on the basis of the process solutions developed by Institute TOMS.
In December 2022 Institute TOMS successfully proved its expertise for compliance with requirements GOST ISO/IEC 17025-2019 “General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”
Process design basis
Institute TOMS has prepared Process Design Basis documents containing information about the development of a process for more than 20 years.
Process Design Basis document includes the following:
- Ore description;
- Metallurgical balance;
- Material balance;
- Environmental impact assessment;
- Electric energy supply;
- Design criteria;
- Mineral processing
- Metallurgy
- Reagents
- Tailings
- Water supply
- Filtration and drying.
The Process Design Basis is used throughout all design stages (scoping study, feasibility study, basic engineering and detailed design) as a primary written source of information for the engineers carrying out the design work, and as a basic document for further work. Institute TOMS has developed Process Desing Basis documents for design of ore processing and metallurgical plants dealing with recovery of gold, silver, copper, iron, carbon, tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum, niobium, zinc, lead, and other valuable components. Major part of these processes is successfully implemented in mining industry.
