Tiegel Talk to a metallurgist

Metallurgy from the first sample to the plant floor.

Tiegel is a Perth metallurgy company. Testwork, process design, commissioning, plant support, reporting and metal accounting, plus the software that ties the numbers together.

What we do See Saldora

Tiegel is German for crucible: where ore becomes metal, and where the numbers have to add up.

One metallurgist across the whole flowsheet.

Testwork, design, commissioning and reporting are often split between different firms. At Tiegel they stay with one metallurgist, so nothing is lost in the handover.

01

Testwork

Programs that answer the design question

Programs scoped around the decision you need to make, then supervised in the lab and turned into design criteria you can build on.

  • Comminution
  • Gravity
  • Leach and CIL
  • Flotation
  • Heap leach columns
  • Lab supervision
02

Process design

Flowsheets, balances and design criteria

Flowsheet development, mass and water balances, equipment sizing and process design criteria, modelled in METSIM, JKSimMet and Aspen HYSYS.

  • Flowsheet development
  • Mass balances
  • Equipment sizing
  • Simulation
03

Commissioning and plant support

From first ore to steady state

Commissioning plans and guides, then hands-on support: troubleshooting, recovery investigations and optimisation on operating circuits.

  • Commissioning guides
  • Recovery investigations
  • CIL, flotation, gravity
  • Heap leach
04

Reporting and metal accounting

Numbers that reconcile and stand up to audit

Metallurgical reporting, metal accounting designed around the AMIRA P754 Code, reconciliation and sampling reviews, with data taken straight from SCADA where possible.

  • Monthly reporting
  • Metal balance
  • Reconciliation
  • P754 reviews
05

Software

Saldora, our metal accounting platform

The same discipline, built into software: balances, inventory, downtime from SCADA, quality control, reports and dashboards in one place.

  • Met balance
  • Mineral inventory
  • Downtime from SCADA
  • Dashboards
SALDORA

Metal accounting software by Tiegel

Every tonne and every ounce, accounted for.

Saldora brings the plant's numbers into one portal, so every figure in the month-end report can be traced back to its source.

Met balanceCheck-in against check-out, with precision on every figure
Mineral inventoryStockpiles and stock in process, reconciled
Downtime from SCADAStops logged by rule and signed off each day
Quality controlStandards, duplicates and blanks, with lab bias flagged
ReportsMonth-end close and a full change history
DashboardsLive plant status and trends against target
