Graeme John Jameson (born 1936) is an Australia engineer who is a professor and Director of the Centre for Multiphase Processes at the University of Newcastle, Australia, in New South Wales, Australia.[1] He is notable for being the inventor of the Jameson Cell mineral separation device, which he devised in the 1980s. The Jameson Cell uses bubbles to separate super fine particles during mineral processing.[2] It is based on the froth flotation mineral separation process, first invented in 1905.[3][4][5]
In the coal industry alone, Jameson's cell has retrieved A$36 billion worth of export coal particles.[2] It is being used worldwide in the separation of coal, copper, lead, nickel, platinum, silver and zinc.[3]
