Introduction Different sulphide ores respond differently in the prospect of copper activation to thiols for froth flotation. With the BCL Selebi-Phikwe ore body, pentlandite–pyrrhotite–chalcopyrite co-occur and there is the constraint of fine pentlandite dissemination in the pyrrhotite, so that liberation is limited. In the presence of …
Effect of calcium and thiosulfate ions on nickel flotation (KeX 75 g/t). The effect of thiosulfate was negligible in the beginning of flotation, and in some cases nickel recovery was even lower than without thiosulfate addition. This may be a consequence of the lower ion concentrations and more negative pulp potentials after thiosulfate addition.

The separation of copper and nickel is achieved by differential flotation, if the mineral grains can be liberated by grinding. Normal practice is to depress the nickel sulfides by increasing the pH of the flotation pulp to between 9 and 11 and selectively floating the copper minerals.
The reagent used in the flotation of nickel depends on three basic factors: mineralogy of the ore, flowsheet employed in the treatment of a specific ore, and degree of liberation. But herein, the choice of this scheme of reagents followed usual methodologies employed in industries that produce concentrates of nickel sulfides via flotation.
Flotation, on the other hand, is a simple and low-cost process, which has been shown to be an effective means of ion removal from aqueous solutions. Many flotation techniques are available, including ion flotation, precipitative flotation, sorptive flotation, dissolved air flotation, and fractionation.
Highlights • Until now, flotation has not been successful to recover nickel from laterite ores. • Fine grinding should be used to liberate nickel-containing particles in …
Differential flotation of bulk sulfide concentrates from Duluth gabbro into copper and nickel concentrates could be implemented by first destroying the hydrophobic coating with ozone and then by recovering the copper concentrate with a copper-selective collector.
In this paper, the flotation behaviour of nickel-copper ores processed in the Sudbury area is discusse~ with emphasis on the effect of oxidation on individual minerals, pnmarily pyrrhOlite. In general, moderate oxidation of a freshly ground ore

Among the beneficiation methods of copper-nickel sulfide ores, flotation is the most important one, and magnetic separation and gravity separation are often used as auxiliary beneficiation methods.
Froth flotation of copper-zinc-lead ores is a complex process based on similar metallurgy processing and strong interactions between chalcopyrite and sphalerite.
Nickel sulphide ores containing pentlandite, pyrrhotite and talc have traditionally been treated by bulk sulphide flotation, an approach which seeks to …
Flotation tests revealed that the stirred tanks with two impellers had an advantage over those with one impeller in intensifying agitation pretreatment, and the …
The reagent practice in the flotation of nickel and copper–nickel ores depends on three basic factors: mineralogy of the ore, flowsheet employed in the …
With both grinding methods, however, the ions improved the selectivity of nickel separation in flotation. Hodgson and Agar (1989) have conducted electrochemical investigations to study the effect of process water ions on surface chemistry of pentlandite and pyrrhotite. They found that calcium, thiosulfate and sulfate ions are surface active at ...
The process exploits the particle size dependence of nickel sulphide flotation and the different ways that pH change and pulp density influence the response …
The technical feasibility of ammonia leaching of platinum group mineral (PGM)-bearing Platreef flotation concentrates was investigated as an alternative method for the recovery of base metals before precious metal recovery. The composition of the concentrate sample included 2·02% Cu and 3·17% Ni, mainly as chalcopyrite and …
Mineralogy is the driving force behind flotation performance. A flotation batch and rate test measures this as mass pull recovery and concentrate grade. The real data from a rate test can be processed to determine the flotation kinetics of metal, mineral and gangue. ... In this example a nickel copper ore containing mainly pentlandite and ...

This study aimed to show the flotation behavior of a nickel sulfide ore in a cyclonic flotation column. The flotation experiments were carried out using a sample of nickel sulfide ore obtained from a mineral processing plant of China. Representative samples collected from the feed, concentrate, tailing, and circulation middling were …
ABSTRACT The extraction of nickel (Ni) from sulfide resources commences with flotation to produce a concentrate which is then smelted to produce a nickel-enriched phase called matte, and further…
This illustration of a rougher feed flotation rate test for a slow floating nickel ore- shows why a minimum of four data points are required. Three concentrate collection times are two, ten and twenty two minutes are shown as yellow circles on the two graphs of recovery versus time and recovery versus concentrate grade.
Nickel ore refers to the naturally occurring rocks or minerals that contain significant amounts of nickel. Nickel is a chemical element with the symbol Ni and atomic number 28. It is a silvery-white metal with a relatively high melting point and excellent corrosion resistance. Nickel is commonly found in the Earth's crust, but it is typically …

The jet flotation machine, the Jameson flotation technology, aeration column tech- nology, cyclonic-static micro-bubble flotation tech- nology and others are expanding gradually into a fine dissemination of nickel sulfide ore flotation.
Most of the world's nickel is extracted from the mineral pentlandite, (Ni, Fe)9S8, which frequently occurs in ores containing predominantly pyrrhotite and various non-sulRdes, some of which contain magnesium (Table 1). The nickel content in such sulRde ores is generally low (0.2}3%) and varies from place to place in the same deposit. The low …
