Theory teaching
Design and project documentation. The technological, economic and environmental aspects of design; Legislation; Location of mineral processing plant and disposition of the individual plant objects; Design in the individual stages of the mineral processing (crushing, grinding, classification, flotation, gravity, magnetic and electric concentration, leaching, dewatering) - parameters of technological processes; project task; technological flowsheet and mass balance flowsheet; selection of equipment and its disposition; connection and transport of masses between separate phases of the process (plant departments); Control and regulation of the process; Connection between technological project and other projects (mechanical, civil, electrical and economical part of the project); Tailing pond.

Practical teaching
Each student receives a separate project task related to creation of technological project and design of separate phase of the process (plant departments). According to project task, student creates process flowsheet, mass balance flowsheet, selects and calculates machines and devices, as well as standard and non-standard equipment, performs disposition of equipment and plant objects, performs location of individual plant objects.
