Copper oxide minerals are important copper resources, which include malachite, azurite,
chrysocolla, cuprite, etc. Flotation is the most widely used method for the enrichment of …

The pristine points of zero charge (PZC) and isoelectric points (IEP) of metal oxides and IEP
of other materials from the recent literature, and a few older results (overlooked in previous …

The efficient separation of scheelite from calcium-bearing minerals, especially calcite,
remains a challenge in practice. In this work, a novel reagent scheme incorporating a …

The flotation of diasporic bauxite is to separate diaspore (valuable mineral) from
aluminosilicate minerals (gangue minerals, mainly including kaolinite, illite and pyrophyllite) …

Ethanediamine was used to modify the mineral surface of malachite to improve its
sulfidization and flotation behavior. The activation mechanism was investigated by …

Abstract Machine learning (ML) models for predicting flotation behavior focus on operational
variables. Fundamental aspects, eg, physicochemical variables that describe mineral …

Copper slags are a by-product generated from copper extraction. Rich in iron oxide, silica,
calcium oxide, and alumina, copper slags are mostly stockpiled or used in landfill …

Hypothesis Hydroxamate and sulfhydryl surfactants are effective collectors for flotation of
copper minerals. The combination application of hydroxamate and sulfhydryl collectors has …

The interaction between sulfide ion species and malachite surfaces in relation to flotation
was studied in this work using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis, surface …

Copper oxide minerals, such as malachite, do not often respond well to traditional copper
sulphide collectors, and require alternative flotation schemes. Hydroxamic acid collectors …
