If you are interested in using Alderox® at your mine site, please contact us via e-mail at or phone at (949) 542-7440. We can provide you with a full mining information package via the mail or e-mail.
For further interested parties, we will send out a 5 gallon sample of product and a bucket-top applicator at cost. The applicator system is custom built according to your specific application. This step is to allow our customers to try our product to ensure that Alderox® works for their ore type and environment; and that Alderox® does not affect their downstream processing circuit.
Our Standard bucket-top applicator system houses the following specifications:
- 100 psi pump
- 54 inch wand (36 inch base wand with 18 inch extension)
- Angle of Spray: 40 deg
- Size of Orifice: 0.03 gallons per minute
- Standard hose length: 20 feet
- Country-specific Electric Power
We can substitute the following variations:
- Higher pressure pump (150 psi with ball valve)
- Longer wands for better reach (up to a solid 84 inch wand)
- Shorter wands for ease of use
- Larger tips to reduce overspray (up to 0.05 gpm)
- Longer hose length
- Any electric power (voltage) requirements
The next step is generally to schedule an on-site meeting with the Alderox team. At the on-site meetings, a combination of the following work can be accomplished at the customer’s request:
- PowerPoint presentation meeting
- On-site demonstration
- Site survey and evaluation
The site survey and evaluation is to determine the best method of applying Alderox®. Questions that will be answered are:
- How often will Alderox® need to be used?
- How much Alderox® will be needed each spray?
- What effects will the temperature have on the effectiveness of the product?
- What type of applicator system should be used?
- Is there an off-the-shelf solution or will a custom-built system be required?
- What is the lead time on the project being fully operational?
- How will the product reach the mine?
- Where will the product be stored?
The last step, then, is to enter into a long-term supply agreement with Alderox Inc. With that, we can ensure adequate production of Alderox® ASA-12® for your mine for years to come!
