Intelligent Ore Sorting: A "Technological Weapon" to Support China's Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action
In recent years, China has vigorously promoted the "Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action":
In 2024, the Ministry of Natural Resources issued a plan for the allocation of exploration rights, providing over 1400 exploration blocks for strategic minerals throughout the year, a record high in nearly ten years (Source: Ministry of Natural Resources).
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, a total of 400 billion yuan was invested in mineral exploration, with over 90% from social capital, exceeding 100 billion yuan in both 2023 and 2024 (Source: CCTV Finance).
As of February 13, 2025, the Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action has yielded significant results:
Exploration Results
Newly discovered 10 billion-ton oil fields and 19 trillion-cubic-meter gas fields
Explored 10 or more large uranium deposits
Significant increase in the reserves of 12 mineral resources, including copper, gold, gallium, germanium, and indium
Major breakthroughs in strategic emerging industries related minerals such as lithium, zirconium hafnium, helium, and rare earths

However, as the Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action deepens, challenges in the ore dressing process have gradually emerged. Mineral depletion has led to lower resource utilization rates, high ore dressing costs have squeezed corporate profit margins, low efficiency has limited capacity increases, and large amounts of tailings have created environmental pressures.
These problems not only constrain the profitability of mines but also affect the overall progress of China's transition from the Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action to comprehensive utilization of mineral resources. How to achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement and green development through technological means has become a pressing issue in the mining industry.
PART 1 Jumper Technology's Solution: Intelligent Ore Sorting Equipment
Jumper Technology, with 17 years of experience in the mining industry, has successfully developed the JPXRT series of intelligent ore sorting equipment. Through X-ray identification, AI deep learning algorithms, and high-pressure air-blowing control technology, it provides mining enterprises with a highly efficient, precise, and green ore dressing solution.
01 Core Technology: Making Ore "Nowhere to Hide"
X-ray Identification: The equipment uses X-rays to penetrate the ore to obtain images and information about its internal structure, achieving high identification accuracy.
AI Deep Learning Algorithm: Based on training with massive ore data, the equipment can quickly determine the ore grade.
High-Pressure Air-Blowing System: Controls high-pressure air to blow on the target, achieving fully automated sorting and ensuring efficient separation of high-grade ore from waste rock.
02 Economic Benefits: A "Sharp Tool" for Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement
Reduce Ore Dressing Costs: Through pre-selection and enrichment, it can reduce the subsequent transportation and grinding and flotation ore volume, lowering ore dressing costs.
Improve Sorting Efficiency: The sorting speed can reach 160t/h (non-coal gangue sorting), far exceeding the efficiency of manual sorting.
Reduce Tailings Discharge: Reduces the amount of tailings generated, achieving resource utilization of waste materials, and effectively alleviating the constraints of tailings pond capacity on mine production.
03 Application Cases: Widely Recognized Domestically and Internationally
Jumper Technology's intelligent ore sorting equipment has been successfully applied to large mining enterprises at home and abroad, including China Minmetals, Zhongjinlingnan, Hunan Mineral Resources Group, and Russia's Baikal Mining, covering various ore types such as lead-zinc ore, gold ore, and coal, and has received consistent recognition from customers.
PART 2 Supporting the Mineral Exploration Breakthrough: Technology Empowering the Future of Mining
The core goal of the Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action is to improve the utilization rate of mineral resources, and Jumper Technology's intelligent ore sorting equipment is a key technological support for achieving this goal.
01 Improve Resource Utilization Rate
Through precise sorting, the equipment can efficiently enrich high-value minerals from low-grade ores, giving new value to ores that would otherwise be discarded, significantly improving resource utilization.
02 Promote Green Mining Development
The equipment reduces tailings discharge, reducing the negative environmental impact of mines and helping mining enterprises achieve green transformation, in line with the national "dual carbon" strategic goals.
03 Empower Intelligent Upgrading of the Mining Industry
Jumper Technology not only provides equipment but also provides customized "one-mine-one-plan" services, covering the entire process from ore dressing process design, equipment installation and commissioning, to system operation and maintenance, promoting the development of mines towards intelligence and digitalization.
Looking Ahead: Technology Leading a New Era for Mining
As the Mineral Exploration Breakthrough Action progresses, the demand for efficient and green technologies in the mining industry will become increasingly urgent. Jumper Technology, with its intelligent ore sorting equipment as its core, is injecting new impetus into the high-quality development of the mining industry.
In the future, Jumper Technology will continue to focus on technological innovation, expand international markets, promote the popularization and application of intelligent ore sorting technology, and help the global mining industry achieve green, intelligent, and sustainable development.
