The Effect of Oxidation on the Flotation Behaviour of …

Sulphide minerals are subject to increasing surface oxidation during various milling stages. Naturally, this oxidation is minimal in a grinding process using steel -commonly mild steel ­ media, where the minerals experience mostly reducing conditions. The oxygen content and redox potentials of dense slurries at mill discharge point are lowest ...

R as an environment for data mining of process

Fig. 2 presents the mineralogical composition of the rougher bank streams. Run-of-mine grades of scheelite, calcite, sulfides and apatite are 0.6, 1.5, 1.2 and 0.3%, respectively. Due to the recirculation of cleaner tailing streams within the beneficiation plant, these minerals are enriched in the rougher feed to 1.4, 11, 6.1 and 1.1%, respectively.

Any stage of selective flotation, such as a rougher, must significantly upgrade metal. For example, if a rougher circuit is feed 1% Cu, the concentrate produced by that rougher stage and its reagents needs to be an order of magnitude superior to 2X its feed grade. In this case (1% Cu) a rougher conc greater to 2% Cu should be produced.
