Hydraulic transport of ore

[GarryD]

Does anyone have experience with the pumping of ore in a mine? Specifically raisebore chips.

You might find some info looking for "coal slurry" transportation.

Thanks Blacksmith37. Will do so.

Experienced but Forever a student to something.

I've got a 1974 collection on slurry - Proceedings of Hydrotransport 3 (BHRA Fluid Engineering, ISBN 0 900983 37X), so yes, the concepts and practice have been around for some time.

You probably already have done this, but give a crack at hydrotransport or hydrohoist slurry transport out on the web.

Quite a bit going on, it appears. Sorry if this is late. Hope you do well in your search.
