This paper describes the results of a beneficiation study conducted on low-grade fluorite ore. The was aimed at development suitable process to produce chemical grade concentrate. representative sample ore up-graded by leaching and flotation process. important parameters froth were optimized obtain highest recovery A single-factor variation method applied get optimum conditions rougher concentr...

Conventional gravity separation process of iron mineral fines is not very effective. In present work Multi Gravity Separation (MGS) process has been studied. This study was performed on a low-grade iron ore namely goethiticlateritic ore (GLO) from Eastern India. Detailed mineralogical, physical and chemical characteristics of a goethiticlateritic iron ore showed that the sample contained porous...

The Flash Ironmaking Technology being developed at the University of Utah is aimed at producing iron directly from iron oxide concentrate. In this technology, the concentrate is reduced by H2 and CO gas mixtures formed from the partial oxidation of natural gas in a flash reactor. Natural gas represents an economically and environmentally superior reductant/fuel for the flash ironmaking. The rat...

This paper presents an experimental study on the dissolution kinetics and solvent extraction of total gold from Ijero-ekiti (Nigeria) gold ore deposit by hydrochloric acid leaching followed by extraction with Tributylphosphate (TBP) in kerosene. The leaching investigation showed that the gold ore dissolution in HCl solution increases with increasing acid concentration, temperature and with decr...

Most global supply chains are implemented through the use of some different types transport. This especially applies to general cargo: iron ore, oil, grain. As participants in transport process increase, risks delays, interoperational downtime, and delays deliveries increase. Therefore, improvement multimodal cargo transportation remains an urgent scientific applied problem. The aim studying wa...

Binders are of prime importance in the agglomeration of iron ore concentrates. In this research, strength and density of briquette produced from the magnetite concentrate of Gol-E-Gohar were investigated using different binders at various applied pressures. The results showed that peridor was the most effective binder relative to bentonite and lime. For all types of binders, the increase in bin...

An improved sample preparation procedure for trace-levels of lanthanides in uranium-bearing samples was developed. The method involves a simple co-precipitation using Fe(III) carrier in ammonium carbonate medium to remove the uranium matrix. The procedure is an effective initial pre-concentration step for the subsequent extraction chromatographic separations. The applicability of the method was...

Flotation is, doubtless, the most important process among the various techniques used for the treatment of ore. This generalpurpose technique allows the treatment of several complex ores (lead zinc, copper zinc), sulphides (copper, lead, and zinc), oxides (hematite, quartz), oxidized minerals (malachite, cerusite) and even non-metal ores (fluorite, phosphate, coal). Due to the flotation, it is ...
