Resumen
DANOCZI, J. y KOURSARIS, A.. Development of luminescent diamond simulants for X-ray recovery. J. S. Afr. Inst. Min. Metall. [online]. 2008, vol.108, n.2, pp.89-97. ISSN 2411-9717.
Specially designed X-ray machines are used extensively on diamond mines for the recovery of diamonds from ores. These machines are extremely expensive and, at present, there are no reliable methods of determining if the equipment is performing efficiently. The objective of this work was to manufacture translucent X-ray diamond simulants, which would emit varying but known luminescence signals when exposed to X-rays. These X-ray diamond simulants could then be used to determine the efficiency of diamond recovery operations.
