The impact of SAG pebbles as media vs steel media on flotation performance of a copper sulphide ore: Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly: Vol 58, No 3. …
Iron ores used in the steel industry must have some certain chemical properties including the amount of Fe(II), Fe(III), and the total Fe. In some geological studies, having an accurate level of Fe(II) and Fe(III) is essential for determining the petrology and mineralogy of an ore.[] Iron is found naturally in hybrid forms such as …
The exocontact stringer-disseminated and brecciated sulfide ores, which account for a significant part of the deposits, are located in aureoles of the skarn-associated hydrogarnet-serpentine metasomatites and brucitites that replaced the monticellite and forsterite skarns (Figure 2, Figure 3).

Bioleaching is the metal-extracting practice from sulfides and/or iron-containing ores by means of microorganisms. It is a specified biohydrometallurgical approach in which either the metabolic activities or microbe's products are used to convert insoluble compounds into soluble form, which can then be recovered later [].Biological …

Copper sulfide ores must be concentrated before they can be economically transported to a smelter. Froth flotation is part of a copper beneficiation process in which finely ground …
The ores mined from shallow (oxidation) zones contained abundant native silver, but native silver is less prominent at depth. In the deeper, central parts of the district, Ag has been noted to occur as minute inclusions of Ag-minerals in galena, whereas towards the periphery, Ag-sulfides and sulfosalts predominate ( Baumann, 1965, Burisch et ...
The ores of sulfide copper-nickel, copper-pyrite deposits, and ores of copper sandstones and slates are primarily pro-cessed abroad. The amount of copper in copper sand …
Pyrite and arsenopyrite are generally the gold-carrying sulfide minerals in refractory gold ores (Ahtiainen et al., 2021, Corrans and Angove, 1991). Refractory gold ore is classified based on its recovery into mildly (80–95 %), moderately (50–80 %), and highly (less than 50 %) refractory ( Asamoah et al., 2021, Mabwe, 2020 ).
To solve the problem involved in the grinding of cassiterite–polymetallic sulfide ore in which fine grinding causes the cassiterite to be overground or coarse grinding leads to inadequate …

Probably more than any other aspect, xanthate entrenched froth flotation's role in the utilization of the world's natural mineral resources. Sulfide minerals are the largest of the groups of minerals floated. Today, more than a billion tons of sulfide ores are concentrated annually throughout the world with this technology.
Sulfide ores are crushed and ground in order to liberate nickel minerals by selective flotation, in place of, or in conjunction with magnetic separators. After that, nickel concentrate (containing 6–20% Ni) can be collected. The enriched concentrate contains fuel composition in the form of iron sulfide, which can reduce the energy consumption ...
In contrast, oxide ores consist of metal oxides – compounds in which a metal is combined with oxygen. These ores are often located closer to the surface and can be accessed via open-pit mining ...
Sulfide ores in volcano-sedimentary sequences, such as those associated with ophiolite complexes (e.g. the Troodos Complex in Cyprus) are dominated by pyrite and chalcopyrite. Our understanding of the formation of such deposits has been revolutionized by the study of present-day volcanic and hydrothermal activity on the seafloor. Disseminated ...

Ultrasonic technology is being increasingly explored in minerals processing. In this paper, ultrasonic treatment was introduced as a novel method for microbial desulfurization of sulfide ores. A Box–Behnken experiment was performed to find the best combination of factor levels for the following experiments; consequently, the combination …
Regarding sulfide gold ore (Fig. 6 (b)), differences in the composition of the raw material resulted in different peak concentrations of thiosulfate generated from sulfide gold ores after thermal activation pretreatment. The possible reason is that the pyrolysis of arsenopyrite led to more sulfur volatilization and an increase in the impurity ...
Platinum Metals Magmatic Sulfide Ores. A. J. Naldrett, J. Duke. Published in Science 27 June 1980. Geology. TLDR. The absolute and relative concentrations of PGE in magmatic sulfides are explained in terms of the degree of partial melting of mantle peridotite required to produce the parent magma and the processes of batch equilibration and ...
In disseminated sulfide ores the main platinum-group minerals are represented by isoferroplatinum and cooperite whereas in massive ores a great diversity of palladium intermetallic compounds and tetraferroplatinum commonly occur. Pd and Pt sulfides, tellurides, and bismuthotellurides are characteristic of veinlet-disseminated and breccia …
Energy Calculations for SAG Grinding of a Sulfide Copper Ore. Organization: Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum. Pages: 7. File Size: 350 KB. …
The most expensive unit operation in the beneficiation of ores is grinding. The correct design of the grinding circuit is crucial to prevent unnecessary use of energy. Proper design and evaluation of SAG grinding circuits require the specific grinding energy, which is determined experimentally. The most common tests in SAG grinding are the Drop …
Primary grinding – Lime is often added into the semi-autogenous (SAG) mill together with the ore feed and process water. Sulfide minerals are, by nature, acid to varying degrees causing the milled pulp to have a pH ranging from 4 to 8 depending on …
The modeling results also demonstrate that the massive ores in segments I and II-E experienced notably lower degrees of sulfide liquid fractionation (F = 1.0–0.8, F is the fraction of residual sulfide liquid) than the net-textured ores (F = 0.8–0.4), with metal tenors generally plotting closer to the MSS model curve compared to the net ...
Fractional crystallization and emanation differentiation of sulfide magma and related mineralogical and geochemical zoning are exemplified in massive sulfide ores of the Oktyabr'sky deposit, Noril'sk district. The mineralogical zoning is expressed in the change of mineral types of ore from pyrrhotite (Po) to chalcopyrite (Cp) (from the flanks to the …
All the new plants are currently using the SAG mill/ball mill circuit. Reagent schemes used for the treatment of porphyry copper and copper–molybdenum ores are relatively simple and usually involve lime as a modifier, xanthate as the primary collector and a secondary collector. ... In the flotation of copper–zinc massive sulfide ores, the ...
With the vigorously growing demand of the steel industry, corrosion resistance alloys, clean energy industries, and a variety of engineered infrastructure or technology, high-grade nickel ores are being exhausted gradually in the world.
