An agglomeration process consists of the union of fine particles to other larger ones, forming an agglomerate called "glomer", thus reducing the presence of fine particles in the mineral that is finally sent to leaching, which are the that block the spaces between particles, reducing the percolability of the piles.
Our solution improves the glomerular process, implementing a digital twins tool and methodology; and along with this, being able to determine the optimum of the operating variables in real time, reaching a 1% increase in copper recovery
