1.X-Ray Diffraction Laboratory : 

(The laboratories are listed sequentially, and detailed information appears upon selecting each laboratory.)

This laboratory is equipped with an X-ray diffraction (XRD) system used for mineral identification through X-ray diffraction technology. The device is widely used to identify unknown crystalline materials such as minerals and inorganic compounds. Accurate identification of these materials is essential for research in geology, environmental sciences, materials science, engineering, and biology.

2.Electrostatic Separation Laboratory

This laboratory houses equipment used for electrostatic separation of minerals based on their electrical charges, whether positive or negative, using various separation methods. The technique is widely applied in mineral processing industries and represents a fundamental step in separating valuable minerals from non-valuable components (gangue). This process enables the production of high-quality minerals required for manufacturing products of economic value.

3.Grinding and Crushing Laboratory

This laboratory is one of the largest facilities within the Mining Research Unit. It contains several advanced devices, including magnetic separation equipment, a versatile technology commonly used in mineral processing based on differences in magnetic properties to achieve separation. The laboratory also includes a high-intensity dry magnetic separator, which is used to purify dry minerals and waste materials by separating ferromagnetic and weakly magnetic minerals from non-magnetic materials.

In addition, the Mining Research Unit at the College of Engineering is equipped with several auxiliary devices, including furnaces, mineral gravity separation tables, microscopes, mechanical shakers, mechanical stirrers, and heating plates. The unit is expected to be further equipped with the latest grinding and sample crushing equipment to prepare materials for size-based separation processes.
