We have just been testing a new product that gave over 100% improvementReducing Turbidity Of Water, and I would be interested to know the best way to prove this up commercially.

When you say 100% improvement what does that mean? 100 % recovery or particulates? What size, what type, what mineralogy? What is your focus, gold mining, water treatment etc?

It is qualitative sorry and a comment from the gold mine plant operators who remarked that the reduction in turbidity was 'over 100% improved'. This is a potentially a new and very exciting application for this product, which is actually a pure natural mineral, used as very low levels to great effect.

I'm interested, as clarification is something I engage in regularly; that being said, "100%" is quite vague, as stated earlier and the performance of a product is entirely site, application and conditions specific.

Still happy to receive any information you have on the product.

No problem. I'm off to WA for a few days to run some plant trials with this material, but will get some information to you to look over. The product is a very effective, but counter-intuitive rheology modifier amongst other things and this new clarification opportunity arose unexpectedly from trials at a gold mine in Mexico.
