Selection of Gravity Separators for the Beneficiation of the Uljin Tin Ore

Inhibition mechanism of Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ and Fe 3+ in fine cassiterite flotation using octanohydroxamic acid

“…& 2018 The Authors. Published by the Royal Society under the terms of the Creative Gravity separation (including jigs, spirals and tables) is the dominant beneficiation strategy for the recovery of cassiterite based on the density difference between the valuable and associated gangue minerals [2][3][4]. However, gravity concentration is sensitive to the particle size.…”

Physical beneficiation of heavy minerals – Part 1: A state of the art literature review on gravity concentration techniques

“…Over the decades, it has been reported in the open literature that various methods have been used to evaluate and analyze the performance of GC [ [87] , [88] , [89] , [90] ]. These methods of analysis include but not limited to the evaluation of separation efficiency (SE), grade-recovery and Tromp curve analyses, as well as the gravity concentration index (GCI).…”

“…It is however regarded as a valuable, essential tool in quantifying different operating process parameters. Also it can be utilized in comparing the performances of various unit process operations in HM processing [ 87 ]. where: SE = Separation efficiency (in %)…”

Beneficiation and flowsheet development of a low grade iron ore: a case study

“…Heavy liquid separation is also known as "sink and float separation" and commercial adaptations of the common laboratory procedure used for separating a mixture of two products having difference in specific gravity (Wills and Napier-Mun, 2006). Laboratory testing may be performed on ores to assess the suitability of dense medium separation (and other gravity methods) and to determine the economic separating density (Angadi et al, 2017). The sink and float studies of -6+1.18 mm fraction at two specific gravities viz.…”
