Iron, copper, lead, zinc, gold, and silver ore represent the most common hard rock minerals mined, along with lesser mined silver, nickel, and cobalt. Iron ore provides the base material for the steel, automotive, and transportation industries. Copper is essential to the electronics and construction industry. Gold is used in jewelry, decor, electronics, and dentistry and also functions as a major financial reserve asset. These metals are vital to the economy. In smelters and refining, ores and concentrates are supplied from mines and mills, and recycled material is supplied for further recovery and purification of base metals. Operations include pre-treatment of the ore, roasting, smelting, converting, refining, and conditioning. Teledyne systems provide efficient, effective and reliable support, data storage and reporting for the smelting and refining source point emissions.
