Tiny inhibition of fine particle-particle lead ore float in iron media

The paper confirmed that the type of medium was linked to the recovery of fine grain-particle lead, but the public summary did not give the plant gain figures.

CHALLENGE

Field issues

The recovery of fine grain-lined lead ores is difficult, and the type of medium is a factor that affects the behaviour of floats and the surface state of minerals.

SOLUTION

Optimization of programmes

Comparison of the effects of different media on mineral surfaces and floating behaviour, providing a basis for media and process adjustments.

START WITH YOUR CONDITIONS

Validation of the programme with on-site data

Submitt ore data on ore type, mills and current media, and obtain recommendations for targeted analysis.
