A process that allows selective flotation separation of low Cu/S ratio minerals (chalcopyrite and pyrite) from high Cu/S ratio minerals (bornite and chalcocite) from a mixed copper …
Flotation experiments showed significant depressing influence towards chalcopyrite flotation at pH 10 in sea water and 0.05 M MgCl 2 solution, mainly due to …
In order to mitigate the negative effect of clay minerals (e.g., kaolinite) on copper-bearing minerals such as chalcocite flotation, Zhao and Peng investigated the effects of saline water. The results showed …
The micro-flotation experiments and zeta potential measurements showed that combined depressant consisting of PAAS and GA could efficiently reduce the …
Flotation tests of pure and mixed minerals indicated that H2O2 treatment reduced the floatability of chalcocite and enargite by forming sulfate and copper …
Flotation, as a supplementary approach, can be used to separate fine zircon from heavy minerals (i.e. rutile, cassiterite).
The findings showed that the H 2 O 2 treatment selectively depressed chalcocite flotation by producing copper hydroxide and sulfate species on the chalcocite …
The complete flotation of chalcocite is achieved between ph = 1 to ph = 10 with ethyl xanthate. The resulting hydrophobic species is CuX. Hydroxyl as depressant (OH-) …
Chalcopyrite and chalcocite do not affect pyrite flotation in the same way in rougher flotation after primary grinding. This is because the galvanic interaction between …
Nowadays, froth flotation of chalcopyrite ore has developed a large number of reagents that make it possible to improve the mineral's buoyancy conditions, …
