Mission Statement
The Center for Advanced Mineral and Metallurgical Processing (CAMP) will facilitate cooperation between the university system and industry to enhance the economy of the State of Montana by supporting, developing and adding value to the global mineral, metallurgical, and materials industry. Economic enhancement may be encouraged through added value processing of minerals, materials, and wastes while developing processes that minimize waste generation. CAMP capabilities encompass mineral processing, hydrometallurgy, pyrometallurgy, mineral analysis, process simulation and modeling, and materials development.
CAMP is an engineering, consulting, research, development, and testing facility focused on providing high quality solutions to industrial clients world wide. The Center's affiliation with Montana Tech enables CAMP, through its Fellows Program, to put together a unique combination of seasoned industrial engineers experienced in plant operations, industrial process development, and mineral research and development, with academic principal investigators to offer a clear alternative to the traditional research, development, and consulting venues.
