## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for mining engineers to determine chemical reagent requirements in flotation processes. By using `calculate_reagent_dosages`, users can determine mass requirements based on ore mineralogy and laboratory test data. The `calculate_operational_requirements` tool adjusts these dosages for plant-specific factors like slurry density and retention time. Finally, `calculate_annual_consumption` predicts yearly procurement needs based on annual throughput.

## Tools

### calculate_operational_requirements
Adjusts the per-tonne dosages to account for the physical properties of the actual plant slurry

### calculate_reagent_dosages
Determines the specific mass of each reagent type required per tonne of ore based on mineralogy and test data

### get_mineralogy_summary
Provides a simplified overview of the ore composition to validate input data

### calculate_annual_consumption
Predicts the total yearly volume of reagents needed for procurement planning

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the reagent dosages for an ore with 30% Chalcopyrite and 70% Gangue, using a collector type 'Xanthate' and test dosages of 50g/t collector, 20g/t frother, and 10g/t modifier.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required dosages are 150g/t for the collector, 60g/t for the frother, and 30g/t for the modifier.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Adjust a dosage of 150g/t collector for a slurry density of 35% and a retention time of 12 minutes.
```

**Response:** 
```
The adjusted collector dosage is 185.5g/t.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the annual consumption for a collector dosage of 185.5g/t with an annual throughput of 1,000,000 tonnes?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total annual volume required for the collector is 185,500 tonnes.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool account for different ore compositions?**
The `calculate_reagent_dosages` tool scales the required mass of collectors and modifiers based on the target mineral concentration provided in the mineralogy input.

**Can I adjust for plant-specific slurry density?**
Yes, use the `calculate_operational_requirements` tool to adjust baseline dosages for the specific slurry density and retention time of your flotation circuit.

**How do I plan for yearly reagent procurement?**
You can use `calculate_annual_consumption` to multiply the adjusted per-tonne dosages by your total annual ore throughput to get the total volume needed.
