Lead flotation -Pb-Fe-OH (3 replies and 1 comment)
Please join and login to participate and leave a comment.
I try to float the lead mineral the mineralogy is as follow:
The sample consist mainly of various types of Fe hydroxides and silica together which occupies over 81 volumetric percent of the sample. The main Pb-bearing phase is actually a Fe hydroxide with a 5 to 15 percent of Pb substitution. This phase seems to be a multidimensional spectrum and therefore, determination of specific minerals is very difficult – if possible. However, this spectrum of mineralogy shares almost the same characteristics and contains %43.1 of total Pb content. A %29.4 fraction of total Pb content occurs in Cerussite and a %23.6 in Galena.
When the Iron excessed than 15% in feed the recovery fall to 50%.
How can I improve the recovery?
The plant flotation condition is :
