Promitek is a private consulting startup that provides geological, geochemical, and metallurgical analysis services to the mining industry to help with exploration, operations optimization, and processing issues. Their services include rock classification, mineralization trend analysis, paragenetic analysis to determine mineral sequences, geochemical mapping, process plant optimization through data analysis and variability studies, element deportment studies, liberation analysis, and predictive geometallurgy. The goal is to extract and integrate useful information from customer data to improve understanding of mining operations and make them more efficient.
