Lab-scale experiments results show that the new process contributed to the flotation of the complex mixed sulfide-oxide lead and zinc ore regarding two aspects: (1) High alkaline process (pH = 12±) was replaced by low alkaline process (pH = 9±) by using collector WS (a mixture of ethyl thiocarbamate, ammonium dibutyldithiophosphate and ...
In the cationic reverse flotation of iron ore at alkaline pH (9 to 10.5), gelatinized starch with NaOH is used as an iron ore depressant (Silva et al., 2019). In this process, a desliming step must be applied to remove particles below 10 µm, which can result in large mineral losses ( Gonçalves and Lima, 2020 ).
Table 11.1 shows the points of zero charge (pzc's) for some iron oxides and quartz (Aplan and Fuerstenau, 1962).This property is important when using flotation collectors that are physically adsorbed, for example, amines. The pzc's for the three iron oxides, hematite, magnetite, and goethite, are around neutral pH (~ pH 7), whereas the pzc for quartz is in the …

The mixture was ...
Lead circuit laboratory flotation performance (Figure 4) varies widely for different ore types depending on the refractory nature of the ore and the type and content of the iron sulphides. …
In conventional operations of iron ore beneficiation by flotation, the flotation feed is deslimed to remove the 10 µm fraction prior to flotation (Filippov et al 2014), thus the unselective flocculation effect of starch does not affect the flotation selectivity. Contrary to what occurred in this study, where the pure mineral samples used for ...
In this study, a new flotation approach, a low-alkaline and non-desliming process, was introduced for improving lead and zinc recoveries, lowering production cost and reducing environmental pollution.Lab-scale experiments results show that the new process contributed to the flotation of the complex mixed sulfide-oxide lead and zinc ore regarding two aspects: (1) …

In the recent past, iron ore resources from Brazil consisted of relatively high-grade iron ore, commonly processed via multi-stage crushing/screening, gravimetric concentration, magnetic separation, and reverse flotation. However, the high-grade iron ore reserves are in decline, resulting in the need to process the lower grade itabirite iron ores.
The problem of treating oxidized lead-zinc ores for the production of high-grade lead zinc flotation concentrates is a complex problem due to the nature of the ores and to the soft sliming characteristics of the lead and zinc minerals. The ore for treatment is a lead-zinc carbonate ore in a mixed siliceous-lime carbonate gangue. The association of the minerals and …
