Smart Search

Combine full-text search inside every PDF with fine-grained filters — by language, category (article, book, thesis, report), publication year, author, organization, file type, and tags. Ideal for research in extractive metallurgy, mining engineering, hydrometallurgy, cobalt and copper processing, materials chemistry, and applied sciences. Results are ranked by relevance to your keywords across abstracts, titles, tags, and the full document text.

Smart Search is designed for the way researchers actually work. Filter by year range to isolate historic references or the most recent literature; filter by language to focus on French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, or any other of our supported languages; filter by organization to see everything published by a specific university, research center, or industrial group; and combine any number of tag filters to zero in on cross-disciplinary topics. Once you find useful results, save them into a Reading Collection for later reference or share the collection with colleagues.

Frequent searches include: heap leaching kinetics · copper solvent extraction (SX-EW) · cobalt hydrometallurgy · pyrite oxidation · gold cyanidation · flotation reagents · tailings management · acid mine drainage · autoclave leaching · nickel laterite processing · zinc electrolysis · lithium extraction from brines · rare-earth separation · sulfide roasting · slag chemistry · industrial safety in mining.
