Fluorite is an important strategic mineral. In general, fluorite ores will contain a certain amount of calcite gangue mineral. Thus, they need to be separated from each other. For an economic separation, a reverse flotation process is used to float calcite gangue from fluorite. However, little information on the separation is available. In this …

Calcite flotation in acidic media is a difficult task due to the solubility of calcite and consequently the release of calcium ions in the flotation pulp. In addition, the interaction of calcium ions with the flotation reagents requires the correct selection of these reagents. In this study, potassium oleate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate …

Compared with calcite, fluorite is insensitive to the concentration of the salted water glass, and the recovery of fluorite remains around 85%. The results show that the flotation separation of fluorite from calcite can be achieved at pH 11. Download : Download high-res image (265KB) Download : Download full-size image; Fig. 5.

Under the conditions of pH 8.0, styrene phosphonic acid (SPA) 80 mg/L, and HCA 6 mg/L, the flotation recovery of cassiterite and calcite was 82.01% and 19.18%, respectively, in the flotation ...

The flotation test results showed that 60 mg/L SMKL had a significant influence on depressing calcite flotation, while it had a slight effect on scheelite flotation. Furthermore, it enhanced the WO 3 grade of the concentrate in the artificial mixed ore to 62.02% with a recovery rate of 80.37%. The contact angle and zeta potential showed …

The samples were conditioned for 2 min with a rotating speed of 1800 rpm in the specified solution to stabilize its surface properties.

At present, the research on flotation separation of cassiterite and gangue minerals is mainly focused on the development of new collectors or depressants, while the research on combined depressants is rare. In this study, the flotation separation of cassiterite and the typical gangue mineral, calcite, was investigated using the metal …

The Calcite Flotation Flowsheet. In all cement plants it is necessary to crush the lime-rock and grind it down to the desired fineness for the kiln feed. In some operations specifications call for a grind of 90% minus 200 mesh and others to, all minus 50 mesh. This procedure follows even though no beneficiation is necessary, so the introduction ...
