At present, the primary beneficiation approach of fluorite is flotation [5].In the deposits, fluorite is often associated with gangue minerals such as calcite and quartz, which share similar surface properties with fluorite (i.e. solubility, crystal structure, hydrophobicity, and zeta potential), making the effective separation challenging to achieve [[6], [7], [8]].

Many studies have investigated the separation flotation of calcite and scheelite, but developing a procedure for the depression of fluorite and calcites remains difficult [16,17,18]. In order to address the difficulty of obtaining an effective flotation separation of scheelite from fluorite, novel depressants must be explored.

The mineralogical characteristics of a phosphate tailing were studied, and the occurrence state, mineral types, and embedded characteristics of phosphorus in the phosphate tailings were ascertained. The results show that the main minerals in the phosphate tailings are collophane. The main gangue minerals are quartz, dolomite, …

Sodium oleate (NaOL) and benzohydroxamic acid (BHA) are commonly used scheelite and cassiterite flotation collectors. Hydrophobic flocculation flotation of fine minerals has been extensively studied and reported under a NaOL system, but not under a BHA system. In this paper, the particle size distribution and flotation behaviour of fine …

It was observed that a flotation concentrate containing 32.1% Zn and 8.0% Pb was obtained and that the zinc and lead recoveries were 91.3% and 92.3%, respectively. The XRD patterns of the flotation concentrate and tailing are shown in Fig. 4. It was observed that the flotation concentrate was mainly composed of sphalerite, galena and …

The dry fine lead flotation tailing from Dandy was passed thorough a ¼ inch sieve, ... (II)-xanthate system were investigated. The micro-flotation tests showed that the floatability of fine calcite was significantly decreased after the addition of 40 mg/L of HPMA, while only a slight effect was observed on smithsonite.

The ore sample used in this work was collected from the feed ore of the fluorite flotation circuit in the Las Cuervas concentration plant. The ore sample consisted of fluorite, quartz, calcite and clay minerals.

Flotation separation of apatite and calcite is difficult due to the same surface properties and depressant is essential. As shown in Fig. 2, the recovery of apatite increases from 69.74% to 85.03% when the pH increases from 6.0 to 8.0.Then the apatite recovery obviously decreases to 40.95% when the pH reach to 11.0.
