Mineral Sands Mining & Processing
Mineral sands mining . In our mineral sands extraction process we use both wet and dry mining techniques. Wet mining involves dredging mineral sands from beneath the surface of a specially created extraction pond, while dry mining utilizes conventional earth-moving equipment such as scrapers, trucks, and excavators to excavate the mineral sands deposit.

Sand mining at Rainbow Beach
It sucks up the sand and does a partial separation of the heavy and light sands. The light sand is returned to the pond and the heavy sand trucked to the main plant, known as the dry mill, where further processing takes place and the various minerals are separated. Secondary processing takes place overseas.
