Abstract

The current scenario of research in the field of mining and metallurgy in Cuba requires the application of advanced analytical tests for the study of the morphology of minerals and structure, the surfaces of the faces and fractures, as well as detection dislocation and qualitative and quantitative characterization of the phases present. Electron microscopy is nondestructive analytical technique that increases hundreds of thousands of times the size of the material under study, quickly revealing the presence of minerals of economic or scientific interest. Given that there is no equipment to enable the use of this technique, the CIPIMM supported by the Department of Geology MINEM decides to invest in buying a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and its accessories in the Geominero enterprise system, given which offers a commendable response to these requirements. In this paper the technical and economic feasibility of the acquisition and installation of Scanning Electron Microscope using the methodology established by the Ministry of Economy and Planning was evaluated. According to all outputs effective calculated for the cost of the investment and operation of equipment to provide services planned microscopy, with consequent entries planned manpower, it was determined that the project is feasible from a technical standpoint economic, where a Net Present Value (NPV) of 478,2 MMT, an Internal rate of Return (IRR) of 26,4% and a recovery period (PR) of investment in 4,4 years was obtained.
