A new perspective on copper oxide flotation: Synthesis and …

Copper oxide ore is characterized by low ore grade, fine embedded particle size and severe slime coating, which is a difficult ore to be processed in China [1].Malachite [Cu 2 (OH) 2 CO 3] is a classic type of copper oxide and can be widely applied in copper metal extraction [2].And it is a type of hydroxy copper carbonate, which is formed by oxidation and …

A review of the flotation of native gold and electrum

This latter point implied that gold-rich particles had better floatability than goldsilver alloys, but as noted elsewhere, when xanthate is present the reverse seems to be true. ... which is favourable for native gold flotation. Copper sulphate is well-known as an activator for iron sulphides and sphalerite, but copper is less noble than gold ...

Copper recovery from copper slags through flotation …

In previous years, numerous methods have been developed on the recovery and utilization of valuable metals in copper smelting slags, which can be summarized as pyrometallurgy [26], hydrometallurgy [27] and flotation [28].Through pyrometallurgy of copper slags, the precipitation of suspended matte (Cu 2 S) droplets is promoted into the matte layer …

Separation of Copper and Molybdenum from Bulk Cu–Mo

This work investigated the separation of copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) from bulk Cu–Mo concentrate using pressurized water leaching (PWL) and Hallimond tube flotation. The effects of pressure, temperature, stirring speed, and solid–liquid ratio on the dissolution efficiency of copper and molybdenum were investigated using PWL. The results showed that …

Sulfidation behavior of copper ferrite induced with sulfur …

From Fig. 2 (a), it is seen that flotation recovery of copper ferrite without sulfur was less than 5 % in the whole SBX dosage range, that is, the raw copper ferrite was hardly floatable. Flotation recovery of the roasted products increased from 22.59 % to 82.07 % with increasing the amount of SBX after roasting at 500 ℃. When the temperature ...

CHAPTER 7 FLOTATION OF SULPHIDE MINERALS

Flotation of Chalcocite (Cu 2 S) Chalcocite (Cu 2 S) and chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2) are the two most commonly floated copper sulphide minerals. Bornite (Cu 5 FeS 4) and covellite (CuS) and energite (Cu 3 AsS 4) are normally present in lesser quantities. The complete flotation of chalcocite is achieved between ph = 1 to ph = 10 with ethyl xanthate.

Effect of Collector and Frother on Copper Flotation

These higher frother concentrations cause excessive froth in the flotation cell which increases the froth overflow rate and thus an increase in flotation rate. Alternatively, low frother concentrations produce loosely textured froths with large bubbles which tend to release gangue particles from the froth, resulting in a high concentrate grade ...

Optimizing the Rougher Flotation Process of Copper Ore

The intercept is zero, because the adjustment led to the regression line passing through the zero value. It must be borne in mind that, although we study a specific flotation process for copper ores, its oxidized degree can vary within a range. Therefore, the range of copper grades in the feed was also chosen as independent variables for its study.
