Speaker details for Tuesday 18 February 2014 - have you booked your place yet?
We are pleased to give you our two keynote speakers' biographies for the next Industrial Solutions Breakfast on Tuesday 18 February at 08.00; we do hope that you can join us to find out just how useful electron microscopy has been to PetroLab's new business development, and to find out how the PEMC could support your company to grow:
James Strongman, PetroLab Ltd
James is a Director and the Principal Mineralogist at Petrolab Ltd. He has been with the company since 2001, starting as a junior petrographer under the supervison of Petrolab's founder, Dr Alan Bromley and subsequently purchasing the company in 2006.
During his 13 years with the company, he has gained a wide spectrum of experience in the analysis of materials ranging from concrete and man-made stone replacements to precious and rare earth metals found in electronic scrap. His specialist field is, however, metalliferous ores, and he has developed a broad knowledge for the importance and application of mineralogy to mineral processing problems.
Petrolab has in recent years been looking for an opportunity to enter into the field of Automated Mineralogy. With the collaboration and support of both Plymouth University and Oxford Instruments over the last year, Petrolab has been able to launch its Automated Mineralogy services to the mining and mineral processing industries, a move the company see as vital to its business development.
Keith Taylor, Oxford Instruments
Keith is a Sales Engineer with Oxford Instruments NanoAnalysis, a role which he has been doing for 6 years, during which time he has gained microscopy experience working on customer applications with many types of samples including geological materials, metals, ceramics and glass. His background by training is electronics, having worked in manufacturing and sales for high-tech industries including aerospace, medical and mechanical engineering.
Oxford Instruments launched one of the first commercially available dedicated microanalysis packages for minerals identification and characterisation in 1991. Since then, sustained development of detector technology and software algorithms have significantly increased the analysis speed and capabilities of their systems.
With the launch of INCAMineral in 2012 and AZtec LAM (Large Area Mapping) in 2013 the company now provides the most comprehensive and advanced toolset for the analysis of geological materials in the scanning electron microscope – all of which can be accessed by industry at the Electron Microscopy Centre in Plymouth University (and for free for eligible companies).
