Green Mining Technology from Finland From the Discovery of the Big Boulder to a Success in Global Technology Business By: Matti Tarvainen, Outotec (Finland) Oy PDAC 2013
Where it all began Cu: 3.74% S: 33.64% Fe: 29.85% Zn: 0.11% The boulder, rich in Copper that led to the discovery of the Outokumpu ore body The Mysterious Hill, underneath which the ore body was discovered March 17, 1910 at the depth of 29 m 2 8.3.2013 Outotec
First Outokumpu concentrator set the technology development and customer approach philosophy The first Outokumpu concentrator on top of the Mysterious Hill in the Eastern part of Finland was built on a hill side to minimize pumping, increase controllability and save the scarce energy resources. This is the historical origin for our century long development philosophy for sustainable technologies and their application in a way that today focuses in the green mining philosophy. It set the course for a strong chain of innovations and technology applications in the Mining and Metallurgical areas. Today as a mining museum Outotec successfully continues this legacy by globally supplying equipment, building processes and plants and treating the effluents to meet the highest international standards. Our portfolio of technologies covers virtually all major processes from the ore to final high value added products. 3 8.3.2013 Outotec
