Inside ISAKIDD | Cathode plate technology
Part 2: Designed for your tankhouse

Every tankhouse has different operating requirements, so its cathode plates should reflect them.
ISAKIDD cathode plates can be customised across a range of specifications, including hanger bars, plate dimensions, steel grades and edge strips.

Each plate is manufactured to suit the client’s operation and integrate with their existing tankhouse equipment.

Next week, we explore the design of our copper-plated hollow bars.

Glencore Technology is heading to IMPC 2026!

Our team is excited to join mineral processing professionals from around the world in Cape Town, South Africa, for the ###II International Mineral Processing Congress.

Ion Gurnett will present two papers exploring the practical application and continued evolution of mineral processing technology:

📅 Wednesday 21 October
📍 Venue 2.63–2.64
All times local to Cape Town.

⏰ 14:00–14:20
Stirring the Pot: 30 Years of Innovation and Beyond
A look at the evolution of the IsaMill, including larger mill designs, lower-profile layouts, advances in grinding media and internal components delivering improved energy efficiency and reduced installation costs.

⏰16:55–17:15
Napkin Math for Leaching: Quick Checks on the Economic Case
A practical approach to identifying recovery opportunities and developing an early-stage economic case using Jameson Cell flotation, IsaMill ultrafine grinding and oxidative leaching.

Attending IMPC 2026? Connect with our team to discuss fine and ultrafine grinding, flotation, oxidative leaching and opportunities to improve mineral processing performance.

What happens inside a Jameson Cell downcomer?

A high-speed slurry jet draws in air, creating fine bubbles and intense mixing. Floatable mineral particles attach to those bubbles, ready for separation in the tank.

This bubble particle contact is central to how the Jameson Cell achieves rapid flotation.

A new application for the Jameson Cell, demonstrated through test work in Peru! 🎉

At Antapaccay’s Tintaya Concentrator, our team tested a modified Jameson Cell in a coarse scavenger duty. The pilot program recovered an average of 24.7% of copper-bearing particles larger than 150 µm, upgrading the recovered material by approximately 5.3 times.

The changes to the downcomer design and operating approach were minor, retaining the simplicity of the standard Jameson Cell.

The proposed circuit would allow the recovered material to be reground and returned to the rougher circuit, with the potential to increase overall copper recovery by 2–6%, depending on the application. Further validation across different ore types and operating conditions is planned.

Can you spot the gremlins? Some are hiding better than others. 👀

In a smelter, the troublemakers can be harder to identify. Minor elements may be present in low concentrations, but their impact on operational stability, product quality and process efficiency can be significant.

Join us for our upcoming webinar on critical and minor elements in smelting and recycling. We’ll look at what makes these naughty little gremlins cause trouble and how understanding their chemistry can help keep them under control.

The session will cover challenges across e-scrap, secondary lead, primary copper and primary lead smelting, helping metallurgists better understand and manage increasingly complex feed streams.

How many gremlins did you find? Let us know below⬇️

Register for your time zone to learn more about the ones causing problems in your process.

Inside ISAKIDD | Cathode plate technology
Part 1: Developed through real-world testing

Cathode plate life starts with rigorous material testing.

We developed and trialled our Duplex cathode plates over several years in a working tankhouse in Townsville. This increased mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, giving clients robust cathode plates designed for long-term performance.

Next week, we look at how we customise cathode plates for each tankhouse.

Our Jameson Concentrator brings together Jameson Cell flotation and, where finer mineral liberation is needed, IsaMill fine grinding in a compact circuit.

Less equipment means less steel and concrete during construction, and fewer moving parts to maintain once the plant is running. Combined with lower energy requirements, these advantages can help reduce both capital and operating costs.

A smaller footprint can make a big difference, from construction through to everyday operation.

Get to know your smelter's gremlins and register for your webinar time zone now!

Every smelter has its gremlins. Some are present in very small concentrations.

Minor elements can cause major headaches for metallurgists, affecting operational stability, product quality and process efficiency. Keeping these gremlins under control starts with understanding their chemistry.

Join Dr Stuart Nicol and Neil Viviers for our upcoming webinar, "Critical and minor elements in smelting and recycling: the naughty little gremlins causing problems".

We'll meet the troublemakers found in e-scrap, secondary lead, primary copper and primary lead smelting, explore what governs their behaviour and discuss practical ways to manage their impact.

For metallurgists planning or operating a copper or lead smelter, it's an opportunity to better understand what's causing the trouble and how to keep the chaos under control.

Have you experienced challenges with minor elements in smelting?

Our technologies share more than a flowsheet. Their connection goes back more than 30 years.

In 1994, IsaMill was launched, bringing energy-efficient, large-scale fine grinding to mineral processing operations. It was also the year the Albion Process was developed, combining ultrafine grinding with oxidative leaching at atmospheric pressure.

Today, that connection remains at the heart of the Albion Process flowsheet. IsaMill produces clean mineral surfaces and a sharp particle-size distribution, supporting improved leaching kinetics. The concentrate then moves into the oxidative leaching circuit, where sulphide minerals are oxidised and valuable metals are liberated for downstream recovery.

More than three decades later, it still starts with the grind.

Meet the people behind ISAKIDD cathode manufacturing in Chile.

Senior Metallurgist, Stuart Nicol recently visited our long-term manufacturing partner ICL to catch up with the team behind the local manufacture and maintenance of ISAKIDD cathodes.

With 25 years of experience in cathode manufacturing and maintenance, ICL brings local knowledge and practical expertise to our global ISAKIDD network, supporting copper operations in Chile and internationally.

It was great to spend time with the people doing this work and see where it all happens. Thanks to the ICL team for welcoming us!
