Alrosa to Launch Field Tests of Groundbreaking Diamond Recovery Technology in September

Waleed Farouk Alrosa has announced that it will begin field tests in September for a pioneering technology aimed at boosting productivity and speeding up diamond extraction, with plans to roll it out globally if successful. According to a statement on the company's website last week, the new unit will quadruple kimberlite ore processing capacity to 300 tonnes per hour. Innovative Diamond Separator The new technology—a diamond separator—will sort diamonds from waste rock by combining two methods: X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and radiography, enabling faster and more precise diamond recovery. Unlike previous stationary models, the universal separator features a containerized design, allowing for easy transport between sites and direct use at mining locations, including outdoor environments. A Globally Unique Design 'Andrey Naskailev, head of Alrosa's Innovation and Technology Center, said: 'The creation of the universal separator was carried out in close cooperation between teams from the Innovation and Technology Center, the Burevestnik Innovation Center, and the Udachny Mining and Processing Plant of Alrosa. Many technical solutions were developed from scratch—there is no equivalent to this device anywhere in the world.'' From Pilot Trials to Field Operations Following a series of successful pilot tests, Alrosa engineers produced a working prototype of the separator, which demonstrated stable performance across all systems during trials at the Burevestnik Center. The unit is now deployed at one of the company's processing plants and will undergo field testing next month. If results are positive, Alrosa plans to begin large-scale commercial production. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani
