Where Industrial Practice Meets Academic Depth

Sector Engagement: Seminars, Workshops & Outreach

The Academy acts as a knowledge bridge between industry and academia. It organizes seminars and workshops for professionals, young engineers, and students on topics like:

  • Hydrometallurgical innovations (leaching, SX/IX, recovery circuits)

  • Physical separation technologies (DMS, gravity concentration, classification)

  • Process design, automation, sustainability and ESG

  • Environmental responsibilities in modern mining

Events are led by YPT’s senior engineers and invited experts. Workshops combine theory with industrial examples, plant data, and process simulations.

Documenting Knowledge. Defining Standards

Publications and Technical Documentation

The Academy is developing a publishing program — the YPT Academy Series — to share experience-based, peer-informed knowledge:

  • YPT Technical Papers: Research-based studies by YPT engineers and partners

  • Process Insight Sheets: Concise technology primers

  • Training Manuals: Educational content for internal and external learning

  • Case Study Compilations: Practical achievements and innovations

All documents will carry the YPT Academy identity as an official educational extension of YPT’s engineering authority.

Learning Together. Growing Together.

Collaboration and Partnerships

The Academy connects industry, academia, and innovation through:

  • Joint projects with universities and technical institutes
