Max Bowen Mineral Processing Laboratory
The mineral processing laboratory at the Mining Engineering Department of The Colorado School of Mines (CSM), serves as an interdisciplinary link between mining metallurgy and environmental engineering disciplines.
Activities at this laboratory include the following:
-
Teaching
-
Research
-
Industrial problem solutions
-
Continuing education courses and
-
Consulting services through CSM-managed contracts
Relatively small-size classes, enhance the teaching function of this laboratory, (MNGN323) to proceed in tandem with the Mineral Processing Lecture Course, (MNGN322).
