Recent technological advancements are raising the demand for valuable and critical metals. In a quest to find new resources, cobalt-rich ferromanganese crust (CRFC) is considered as alternative since it contains various metals, including cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn). The aim of this work was investigate efficiency (1) enhanced gravity separation by Falcon concentrator (2) reverse fl...
