Ore refers to an aggregate of minerals from which useful components can be extracted, or which possess inherent properties that can be utilized. Minerals are diverse, and based on the industrial properties of the useful minerals in the ore, they can be divided into metal ores (such as hematite, chalcopyrite, galena, etc.) and non-metal ores (such as fluorite ore, asbestos ore, etc.).
Based on the color and properties of the metal, they can also be divided into two major categories: ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals. Non-ferrous metals refer to all metals except iron, chromium, and manganese.
Where do non-ferrous metals come from?
China's non-ferrous metal mines are mainly concentrated in the vast northwestern and southwestern regions, and their distribution often coincides with the direction of mountain ranges.

How much non-ferrous metal is in non-ferrous metal ore?
The content of non-ferrous metals in non-ferrous metal ores varies. The following are the original ore indicators of some mine samples in cooperation with Jumper Technology.
Ag≥150g/t
What are some clever ways to improve the utilization rate of non-ferrous metals?
With the improvement of mining, selection, and smelting technologies and the strengthening of policies on the comprehensive utilization of mineral resources, the comprehensive utilization rate of non-ferrous metal mineral resources in China has been improved to a certain extent, and intelligent mining and beneficiation equipment is constantly being launched. The JPXRT intelligent ore sorting system is an intelligent sorting system in the field of ore sorting, independently researched and developed by Hunan Jumper Technology Co., Ltd. It uses machine vision and deep learning, automated control, mechatronics, and other technologies, combined with high-performance computing and big data technology, to simulate human visual and brain functions; through different spectral imaging, it distinguishes the weathering discoloration, texture, fluorescence, energy spectrum, spectral transmittance, etc., on the surface of the ore, and performs rapid and accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis and intelligent and automated sorting of the ore.

The JPXRT intelligent ore sorting system is applicable to all types of ores and is mainly used for the intelligent sorting of non-ferrous metal ores, non-metal minerals, ferrous metal ores, precious metal ores, and building materials. It can improve the ore grade by pre-rejecting waste, thereby increasing total production capacity and resource recovery rate. To date, the JPXRT intelligent ore sorting system has been successfully applied in many mines, and has conducted pilot test research and application exploration for multiple ore types.
