    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pipe segment including an outer (2) and an inner pipe section (4), with the inner pipe section being positioned within the outer pipe section, and a support means (44, 14, 64) supporting the inner pipe section in relation to the outer pipe section so that the inner pipe section can expand axially relative to the outer pipe section in response to temperature changes in the material being transported in the pipe segment. Furthermore, the present invention refers to a transfer line for transporting hot particulate material, such as iron ore fines, in a carrier gas, including a plurality of these pipe segments and to a process for transporting hot particulate material in a carrier gas in a direct smelting plant for producing molten metal from a metalliferous feed material, in particular between a pretreatment unit and solid delivery means in the form of lances for injecting the material into a direct smelting vessel.

    Abstract: A gravity gradiometer is disclosed which has a sensor in the form of bars (41 and 42) which are supported on a mounting (5) which has a first mount section (10) and a second mount section (20). A first flexure web (33) pivotally couples the first and second mount sections about a first axis. The second mount has a first part (25), a second part (26) and a third part (27). The parts (25 and 26) are connected by a second flexure web (37) and the parts (26 and 27) are connected by a third flexure web (35). The bars (41 and 42) are located in housings (45 and 47) and form a monolithic structure with the housings (45 and 47) respectively. The housings (45 and 47) are connected to opposite sides of the second mount section 20. The bars (41 and 42) are connected to their respective housings by flexure webs (59). Transducers (71) are located in proximity to the bars for detecting movement of the bars to in turn enable the gravitational gradient tensor to be measured.

    Abstract: A mine operation monitoring system is disclosed which comprises a plurality of equipment interfaces, each s equipment interface being located at a mine operation and being associated with at least one item of equipment, and each equipment interface being arranged to monitor and control operation of the at least one associated item of equipment. The system also comprises a plurality of 10 remote monitoring stations remotely located relative to at least one mine operation at a remote monitoring facility, each remote monitoring station being arranged to communicate with at least one equipment interface associated with a different mine operation so as to 15 monitor and control operation of the at least one item of equipment associated with the at least one equipment interface from the remote monitoring station. The system also comprises a communications network arranged to facilitate communications between the equipment interfaces 20 and the remote monitoring stations. A plurality of items of equipment associated with multiple mine operations are monitorable and controllable from the remote monitoring facility, and the communications network comprises multiple network paths for transferring communications 25 between each mine operation and the remote monitoring facility so that a backup network connection is available should one or more network connection fail between the mine operations and the remote monitoring facility. 2988706_1 (GHMattm) P81117.AU 8 Page 1 of 8 -E 0 0 0 - 0 r.0

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for sorting mined material is based on using a range of options for sensing multiple properties of a mined material on a fragment by fragment basis and then analysing the multiple types of data and making decisions about the classification of each fragment and then sorting the fragment based on the analysis. The multiple sensing options include the response of the fragments to electromagnetic radiation. Other sensing options may include sensors that look at the response of fragments of a mined material to an acoustic wave or a magnetic field or optical sensors that evaluate texture or other surface characteristics of fragments.

    Abstract: Cooling panels (31) are attached to the shell (11) of a metallurgical vessel to form an internal lining of the shell. Each panel (31) comprises a coolant flow tube (36) bent to form inner and outer panel sections (37, 38) of zig-zag formation. Panel mounting pins (43) connected to the outer panel section (38) by connector straps project laterally outwardly from the panel through openings (45) in the shell and tubular shell protrusions (46) surrounding the openings (45). The ends of pins (43) are connected to the outer ends of protrusions (46) by welding metal discs (47) thus forming connections exteriorly of the shell in a way which seals the openings (45). Coolant inlet and outlet connectors (42) for the panel project outwardly through openings (48) in the shell and surrounding tubular protrusions (49) and connections are made by welding discs (51) between the connectors (42) and protrusions (49).
