One of the main sources of non-ferrous and precious metals is sulfide ores. This paper
presents a review of the existing literature on the electrochemical properties of some of the …

To achieve the flotation separation of chalcopyrite from galena, a novel organic fenugreek
gum (FG) with high water solubility was introduced as a galena depressant in this work. The …

Studies on the dependence of the technological results of non-ferrous sulfide ore (copper—
arsenic-bearing and non-arsenic-bearing—lead–zinc, and polymetallic) flotation on the pulp …

mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) is an ideal depressant in chalcopyrite-galena separation due
to the advantages of high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and low dosage. However …

Pentlandite and pyrrhotite are ubiquitously symbiotically aggregated with each other, and
the galvanic interaction between them inevitably occurs in flotation process. However, there …

Depression of galena remains a challenge in the flotation separation of the copper/lead
sulfide ores. Current technologies still suffer from considerable drawbacks, primarily due to …

This study concentrated on a thorough surface investigation to ascertain how pH affected the
surface characteristics and floatability of pyrite. To assess the impact of pH on the adsorption …

Dry processing of metal containing ores is often easily discarded as a viable option because
of the higher energy consumption of dry grinding and several other challenges introduced …

Pyrite must be separated from galena during the beneficiation stage because it releases
toxic gases during pyrometallurgy. However, the separation of the two minerals presents a …

The grinding process plays a crucial role in the floatability of mineral. The present study
proposes a scheme to assist in the flotation separation of galena and pyrite by optimizing the …
