Metso will host a workshop as part of Mill Operators 2026.

Gain a practical introduction to HSC Chemistry® and metallurgical modelling in this interactive workshop.

Through hands-on exercises and live demonstrations, participants will learn the fundamentals of flowsheet simulation and how modelling tools are applied across key minerals processing operations, including grinding, flotation and dewatering.

The session will also cover mass balance calculations and flotation scale-up principles, providing valuable insight into process analysis, optimisation and decision-making. Ideal for metallurgists, process engineers and technical professionals looking to build or strengthen their simulation capabilities.

Please note: All registrations are subject to Metso approval
