Flotation
The second largest class of ores amenable to flotation are those containing the mixed sulphides of lead and zinc with or without pyrite. By modern methods it is generally possible to remove separate concentrates in successive stages of flotation, each concentrate containing one of the minerals more or less uncontaminated by the others.
Lead Zinc Separation by Flotation
During flotation of Galena (lead) and sphalerite (zinc), why do we have to depress sphalerite first to effectively separate them?
Flotation | Mineral Processing, Separation & Beneficiation
Flotation is widely used to concentrate copper, lead, and zinc minerals, which commonly accompany one another in their ores. Many complex ore mixtures formerly of little value have become major sources of certain metals by means of the flotation process.
Lead Zinc Sulfide Separation by Sequential Flotation
An eight cell "Sub-A" Flotation Machine of the proper size as determined by test is recommended for zinc flotation. This machine provides adequate flexibility for at least two stages of cleaning and also scavenging capacity for ensuring the lowest possible final tailing. multi-bladed impellers are recommended in at least the last two cells ...
