Tungsten is usually mined underground. Scheelite and/or wolframite are frequently located in narrow veins which are slightly inclined and often widen with the depth. Open pit mines exist but are rare.
Tungsten mines are relatively small and rarely produce more than 2000t of ore per day. Mining methods for tungsten ore are not at all exceptional and usually are adapted to the geology of the ore deposit.
Most tungsten ores contain less than 1.5% WO3 and frequently only a few tenths of a percent. On the other hand, ore concentrates traded internationally require 65-75% WO3. Therefore, a very high amount of gangue material must be separated. This is why ore dressing plants are always located in close proximity to the mine to save transportation costs.
The ore is first crushed and milled to liberate the tungsten mineral crystals. Scheelite ore can be concentrated by gravimetric methods, often combined with froth flotation, whilst wolframite ore can be concentrated by gravity (spirals, cones, tables), sometimes in combination with magnetic separation.

It is obvious that flat-top tungsten carbide button would abrasive easily in some rock formation. According to incomplete statistics, almost flat-top tungsten carbide buttons are wasted when their 75% heights are not using. And the velocity of its plate enlarging is faster than the corrosion of the top. In addition, the longer diameter of the plat, which depresses the pressure between buttons and rock surface. Especially when impact load is insufficient, velocity of drilling would be influenced. So the efficiency of impact energy will be lower. Finally, due to the bottom of flat-top is flat, air inside the hole is hard to release to come into cushion when it has been set. So the pillar is unstable fixed.

In order to accommodate applications where the X-ray flux is too high for both the detector and the electronics that process the X-ray spectrum, a “Collimator Kit” has been developed to collimate the primary X-ray beam. This system is comprised of standard 1.5 inch extender box which slides inside collimator housing.
The collimator housing can accommodate up to two tungsten collimator disks that are placed inside a bayonet holder in front of the detector. All tungsten disks are made of alloy HD17 (90% W, 6% Ni, 4% Cu). All Tungsten disks and spacers have a diameter of 0.625 inches. This Tungsten (W) Spacer /Collimator is 36 mm thick with a 300 µm hole. It is designed to stop and collimate x-rays greater than 100 keV produced from high energy tubes.
The picture shows the structure of tungsten collimator kit:
