Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie here. I don't know if I'm posting in the right place. Could anyone please tell me how to determine which beneficiation technique would be most suitable for beneficiating a Bauxite ore by using the physical parameters of Gibbsite such as contact angle, SG, conductivity and magnetism?

Thank you.

The only way to truly determine the best method is by running tests.  First at lab scale and then in pilot plants.  Theoretical concept can point you in the right direction but many small factors can make big differences when in operation.

So if I want to determine it based on theory, which parameter can I use? I did research and found only the density of Gibbsite.
