"The single most important method used for the recovery and upgrading of sulfide ores", that's how G. J. Jameson described the froth flotation process in 1992. And it's true: this process, used in several processing industries, is able to selectively separate hydrophobic from hydrophilic materials, by taking advantage of the different categories of hydrophobicity that are increased by ...

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The leadzinc ore is a typical lowgrade complex polymetallic sulphide ore. Its typical mineralogy is characterized by a high content of cryptocrystalline graphite, low content of lead, zinc, and copper, and fine grain size. However, the aggregation size of sulfide mineral aggregations is coarse, and the symbiotic relationship is relatively simple. Conventional process treatment requires the ...
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Zinc smelting is the process of converting zinc concentrates (ores that contain zinc) into pure zinc. It has historically been more difficult than the smelting of other metals, iron, because in contrast, zinc has a low boiling point. At temperatures typically used for smelting metals, zinc is a gas that will escape from a furnace, unless ...
