The Cerattepe (Artvin) mine contains volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits in northeastern Turkey. This is a kuroko type deposit located Late Cretaceous volcanic, intrusive and sedimentary rocks, has structure with dense alteration stages. In this study, batch flotation tests were carried out to determine the behavior of new sample (mix ore), that was combination two different ores behavi...

As high-grade and easily exploitable copper ores have been getting depleted, the development of flotation techniques for with low-grade small grain size is becoming an important issue. To process these kinds ores, fine grinding essential to achieve sufficient liberation; however, rate finely ground minerals (<5 µm) substantially low due collision probability between air bubbles mineral particle...

Slovakia has a long and distinguished tradition in the field of mining processing raw materials such as gold, silver, copper, iron ores. In medieval times, area that is today’s was one most important producers processors sulfide ore, which processed specifically by flotation. Flotation waste remains fine-grained are deposited sludge beds after mineral activities. also contains residues heavy me...

Graphite ore collected from Hunan province, south China was characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction, and optical microscopy. Rougher and multi-stage flotation tests using a mechanical flotation cell and a flotation column containing an additional centrifugal force field were carried out to promote its grade and economic value. In rougher flotation, both the mechanical flotation ce...

Waelz slag is an iron-containing waste generated during electric arc furnace (EAF) dust processing in a rotary kiln named the process. This study focuses on reduction smelting of to produce iron-based alloy. The thermodynamic simulation using FactSage 8.0 software was carried out predict temperatures metal and obtained as well their compositions. Based results, experiments were performed labora...
