Minerals play an important role in maintaining human health as the deficiency of these
minerals can lead to serious health issues. To address these deficiencies, current research …

Froth flotation is the most versatile process in mineral beneficiation, extensively used to
concentrate a wide range of minerals. This process comprises mixtures of more or less …

The interaction of amino acids with clay minerals plays an essential role in many natural
processes. Understanding the mechanisms of their adsorption on natural clays opens the …

The affinity of amino acid species toward mineral surfaces is a favorable phenomenon in
green material science applications. To this end, we performed a DFT calculation to study …

Mining practices, chiefly froth flotation, are being critically reassessed to replace their use of
biohazardous chemical reagents in favor of biofriendly alternatives as a path toward green …

In this research, one of the newest nitrile-based collectors so-called Tecflote-S10, was re-
structured to increase its application in the flotation of copper-bearing sulfide minerals. For …

Bacillus cereus is used to enhance the gold floatability in the presence of potassium butyl
xanthate (PBX) as a collector and pine oil as a frother. The effect of bacteria interaction on …

In the present study, the depression effect of thioglycolic acid (TGA) on chalcopyrite and
pyrite in the presence of different collectors, including potassium ethyl xanthate (PEX) …

Phosphate mineral ores are non-renewable resources. It is the main source of fertilizers and
phosphorous chemicals. The enrichment process is essential to meet the industrial …
