Platinum & Palladium Ore Flotation Pilot Plant
The platinum-palladium mineralization was associated with the sulfides which made up about 1 pct of the rock. Microscopic examination of screened fractions of crushed ore showed that most of the sulfides could be liberated at 200 mesh. The Bond Index value for grinding the ore to minus 200 mesh was 16 kW·h/ton.

Froth Flotation Handbook
Froth Flotation Handbook. What is Flotation. Flotation, as the term is applied to ore concentration, means the separation of one of the constituents of an ore from the remainder by causing it to float at or above the surface of a pulp consisting of the finely pulverized ore and water. Minerals that float. Minerals that float have a metallic ...

Molybdenum Ore Processing by Flotation
Molybdenum Ore Processing by Flotation. This molybdenum flotation circuit, based on 250-500 tons per 24 hours is designed for low-grade molybdenum ore having high-grade streaks and with pyrite-quartz gangue. It is also basically sound for many other friable sulphide ores, such as antimony, silver and even some lead ores.
Mining & Processing
Ore is mined and processed at an onsite flotation processing plant capable of treating up to 24 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa). The plant currently recovers copper, gold and silver into a saleable concentrate. The primary ore is crushed and ground using Semi-Autogenous Grinding and Ball mills to a final grain size of approximately 180 microns.
Barite Beneficiation Process and Plant Flowsheet
The Barite Beneficiation Process is one of flotation, it is used as an ingredient in "heavy mud" for oil-well drilling, for which purpose specifications demand a material meeting the drilling "mud" specifications. Fineness: 98% finished product must pass through 200 mesh. (90-95 % will pass through 325 mesh screen.)
