Mineralogical Characterization and Beneficiation Studies of Pyrophyllite from Orissa, India
نویسنده
چکیده
Mineralogical and chemical analyses of three textural varieties of pyrophyllite samples collected from Baliadihi mine of Keonjhar district, Orissa, India are investigated. Mineralogically they consist of quartz, pyrophyllite, altered feldspar as major minerals and muscovite, chlorite, tourmaline, hematite etc. as minor minerals. The samples exhibit compositional variation of SiO2 65.56 71.66%, Al2O3 18.7922.94%, FeO 1.131.68% and alkalis 3.24 to 6 %. Beneficiation studies using flotation technique has indicated that silica can be reduced with concomitant increase in alumina and brightness from a raw pyrophyllite sample which can be suitable for refractory purposes.

Isolation, Screening and Characterization of Hyaluronidase Producing Bacteria
Hyaluronidase has a panoramic use in biotechnology processes and therapy due to its therapeutic, pathophysiological, physiological and biological importance. Since much of the preparations of hyaluronidases are from animal source (bovine and ovine testicular sources) with limited sources of microbial origin, that prompted the authors to screen and isolate a new promising bacterial strain ...
متن کاملthe Benefication Studies of Garnet Deposits From Kohe-E-Garbi Area of Iran (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The occurrences of huge reserves of garnet deposits have been reported from different parts of Iran specially those of Kohe-E-Gabri area which is very high grade in nature. These deposits can not be directly used as abrasives, filter aid and many others because of some impurities present. To know the mineralogical composition, the type of garnet, the shape of the particles, the chemical charact...

In this work, a bench-scale process was developed using mineral-processing methods to recover iron from a placer deposit located in Bardaskan, Khorasan-e-Razavi, Iran. The mineralogical studies were performed by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), Electron Probe Micro-Analyzer (EPMA), and an optical microscope. These studies indicated that titanomagnetite, magnetite, and hematite...

The effectiveness of jigging operation for the beneficiation of low-grade iron ore deposits of Orissa, India has been investigated. Iron ore sample obtained from Barbil region of Orissa containing very high amount of silica and alumina was crushed using the laboratory jaw crusher and roll crusher to prepare different particle sizes. The sink and float tests were carried out to evaluate the poss...
متن کاملBENEFICIATION STUDIES ON BAUXITE MINING WASTE: A VALUE ADDITION FOR REFRACTORYINDUSTRIES
Partially Lateritised Khondalite (PLK) rocks are the waste materials generated as a result of mining of bauxite. The major discolouring elemental impurity in the PLK is iron oxides, which render it unsuitable for its use as a refractory material. The iron can be removed by suitable beneficiation methods. The main aim of this present investigation is to prepare a value added material from the mi...
