he Boddington Au-Cu mine is located in the southwestern corner of the Yilgarn craton in the Western Gneiss terrane in Western Australia. The mineralization is hosted in the northern part of the Saddleback greenstone belt which includes an early sequence of basaltic to dacitic volcanic rocks and associated shallow level porphyry intrusions emplaced between ~2714-2696 Ma. After two periods of def...

Recently, consumers have become more concerned with foods contain natural ingredients in terms of health and economic. Hence, in this study, the effects of concentrate of smoked and sun dried raisin were investigated at 3 levels (1, 3 and 5%) as a natural humectant to improve the quality and shelf life of flat bread. Results showed that addition of smoked and sun dried raisin improved quality a...

in this research work, the zinc extraction was investigated, using bioleaching process from a low grade zinc concentrate which was produced from the accumulated flotation tailings. zinc content was initially upgraded to 11.97% by flotation process. bioleaching experiments were designed and carried out by a mixed culture of acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, acidithiobacillus thiooxidans, leptospir...

utilizing natural clay in the traditional production of the grape concentrates in the villages cause the input of large amounts of some metals (solutes) in the product which will be harmful for the consumers. to eliminate the natural clay from this procedure in non-industrial scale, bentonite was selected as an aid-clarifier and examined in treatments under these conditions: two levels of bento...

In this study, a novel organic depressant maleyl 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (MATT) was synthesized and utilized as galena in the flotation separation of molybdenite galena. The results test indicated that MATT exhibited an excellent depression ability on but barely influenced pH range 6.0–11.0. Zeta potential suggested preferentially adsorbed surface. UV-visible spectroscopy analysis sto...
