Using the nomograph provided overleaf and the following information, suggest a series

 

of size and mass reduction steps to yield an appropriately sampled 0.5 

 


Using the nomograph provided overleaf and the following information, suggest a series of size and mass reduction steps to yield an appropriately sampled 0.5 g analytical sample of ore. (you need to print the nomograph, draw on it, then scan and submit. It is reasonable to extrapolate somewhat below the given range on the y-axis - i.e. below y=1.0010-- of the provided nomograph. There is no unique correct answer as there are various ways to achieve a good sample!) Initial mass - 3.0 kg Initial maximum particle size - 0.315 cm Specified FSE limit - 3.0 x 10-2 Calculate the total s-FSE for your suggestion. For a proposed sampling scheme where s'FSE is above the limit, what steps would you take to reduce it? 1.00E-01 Diameter (cm) 28 9:0315 0224 1.00E-02 0.015 0.71 0.315 --/------ - ---- - - 0.01 0.01 1.00E-03 0.0063 ----/--/- 1.00E-04 1.00E-01 1.00E+00 1.00E+01 Mass (g) 1.00E+0? 0.004 --- - 1.00E+03 1.00E+04
