' will investigate extended applications of microwave technologies with the aim of improving low-carbon, economic recovery of valuable metals from a range of mineral targets, with a starting focus on Copper recoveries particularly in advanced sulphide leaching applications. This collaboration builds upon, and extends, domain knowledge with new learnings and, in combination with other technologies, offers the potential for the low-carbon, low cost, production of 'new' copper metal..

将研究微波技术的扩展应用，旨在改进从多种矿物目标中低碳、经济地回收有价值的金属，首先聚焦于铜的回收，特别是在先进的硫化物浸出应用中。这种合作建立在并扩展了领域知识，带来了新的学习成果，并且结合其他技术，为低碳、低成本生产“新”铜金属提供了潜力。

As part of the collaboration in the Project, CoTec will leverage on McGill's considerable experience in mineral processing and depth of research knowledge in the field of applied microwave technologies over the last 30 years.

作为该项目合作的一部分，CoTec将利用麦吉尔大学在矿物加工方面的丰富经验以及过去30年在应用微波技术领域的深厚研究知识。

in copper sulphide extraction. CoTec is focused on technologies which leach low-grade primary copper sulphides, such as chalcopyrite, and copper waste material using a proprietary high throughput inorganic leaching technology Ceibo. We see the potential for using microwaves on copper sulphide waste to pre-condition the materials prior to the leaching process.

在铜硫化物提取方面，CoTec专注于使用专有的高通量无机浸出技术Ceibo来浸出低品位的原生铜硫化物（如黄铜矿）和铜废料的技术。我们认为，使用微波对铜硫化物废料进行预处理，在浸出过程之前具有潜在的应用价值。

Microwave pre-conditioning causes stresses and micro fractures in the rock, potentially increasing permeability and copper recoveries'..

微波预处理会导致岩石内部产生应力和微裂纹，可能增加渗透率和铜的回收率。

Professor Kristian Waters, McGill commented

麦吉尔大学的克里斯蒂安·沃特斯教授评论道

; 'The agreement to collaborate with CoTec provides an exciting opportunity to work with an extremely experienced industrial team in copper extraction. The guidance provided by CoTec in developing WaveCracker™ will be an important part of our Project. McGill has a track record of developing new and innovative mineral processing technologies, and this agreement significantly enhances the university's capability to develop microwave pre-conditioning targeting copper sulphide leaching processes.'.

与CoTec合作的协议为与一个在铜提取方面经验丰富的工业团队合作提供了令人兴奋的机会。CoTec在开发WaveCracker™方面提供的指导将是我们项目的重要组成部分。麦吉尔大学在开发新的创新性矿物加工技术方面有着良好的记录，该协议显著增强了大学开发针对硫化铜浸出工艺的微波预处理能力。
