Tables 32 and 33 can therefore only be regarded as approximations. Table 32 gives the cost of the straightforward treatment in air-lift machines of a simple ore such as one containing easily floated sulphide copper minerals, and Table 33 that of the two-stage selective flotation of a lead-zinc or similar complex ore.

Froth flotation is a physicochemical process that is used to separate fine mineral particles from aqueous suspensions by selective attachment of some types of minerals to air bubbles. Froth flotation is the most important mineral processing technology for the production of valuable mineral concentrates from which metals and minerals are …

Iron ore flotation can be performed in two technical routes: direct flotation of iron oxides and reverse flotation of gangue minerals with depression of iron oxides. …

Abstract. The significant applications of iron ore flotation are reviewed along with an abbreviated discussion on theory and reagent use. Problems or conditions which …

The metal-sulfide ore is hydrophilic in nature. So the hydrophilic part of the surfactant will be towards the ore and the hydrophobic part will be away from it (figure 5). Hyd ro ph il c a t Hydrophobic part + Ore Figure 5: Schematic representation of ore encapsulation Thus the ore becomes hydrophobic in nature and water-repellant as well.
