## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for modeling the kinetics of metal leaching for gold and base metals. By analyzing ore mineralogy and experimental recovery data, users can calculate critical kinetic parameters such as the rate constant and activation energy. The server also identifies whether a process is under diffusion or reaction control and can predict the time required to reach specific extraction targets. Use `get_kinetic_parameters` to derive constants from experimental data, `predict_leach_time` for extraction forecasting, `analyze_mineralogy_impact` to assess ore resistance, and `simulate_leach_profile` to generate theoretical recovery curves.

## Tools

### get_kinetic_parameters
Calculates fundamental kinetic constants from experimental recovery data

### predict_leach_time
Estimates how long it will take to reach a target metal extraction level

### simulate_leach_profile
Generates a theoretical recovery curve over time for a given set of conditions

### analyze_mineralogy_impact
Evaluates how the specific mineral composition affects the expected leaching difficulty

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the kinetic parameters for this recovery data at 45 degrees Celsius: [{'time': 1, 'recovery': 0.1}, {'time': 2, 'recovery': 0.25}, {'time': 3, 'recovery': 0.4}]
```

**Response:** 
```
The calculated rate constant is 0.15, the activation energy is 42.5 kJ/mol, and the process is dominated by reaction control.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How long will it take to reach 85% recovery if the rate constant is 0.12 and activation energy is 35?
```

**Response:** 
```
The estimated time to reach 85% recovery is 12.4 hours with a confidence interval of 0.8 hours.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the impact of an ore containing 30% silicates on gold leaching?
```

**Response:** 
```
The difficulty score is 0.75 and the expected rate modifier is 0.82, indicating significant resistance due to the silicate matrix.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the rate constant from my experimental data?**
You can use the `get_kinetic_parameters` tool by providing your recovery data as a JSON array of time and recovery objects along with the temperature used.

**Can this model predict how long a leach cycle will take?**
Yes, once you have the kinetic parameters, you can use `predict_leach_time` to estimate the duration needed to reach a specific target recovery level.

**How does mineralogy affect the leaching results?**
The `analyze_mineralogy_impact` tool evaluates how the specific composition of your ore affects the difficulty and the expected rate of the leaching process.
