摘要

A method (10) for autonomously determining an elemental composition of an ore involves an initial step (12) of conveying a stream of the ore past a moisture measurement system and an analyser. At step (14) the moisture measurement system operates to obtain moisture content data of the ore. As the stream of ore subsequently passes the analyser, the analyser at step (16) operates to obtain raw elemental composition data of the ore. The moisture content data and the raw elemental composition data are provided as inputs to compensation step (18). In the compensation step (18) one or more data compensation or correction methods or techniques are performed to provide moisture corrected elemental composition data of the ore. This compensated data is provided at step (20).
