Choice selection and application variation of physical beneficiation techniques usually employed on heavy minerals (HMs) depends greatly on mineralogy, composition, shape, particle size distribution, and physicochemical properties of the minerals. Recent advancements in the applications of HM products by modern science, engineering, technological, and …
ABSTRACT Among lithium minerals, spodumene contains the highest value of lithium, and therefore developing new or improving existing processes for extracting lithium from spodumene can have a significant effect in lowering the cost of lithium production. Spodumene can exist in three different polymorphs, namely α-, β-, and γ-spodumene. Studies to date …
The cyanidation process for gold production has remained dominant for over 130 years because of its selectivity and feasibility in the mining industry. For this reason, the industry has been adjusting its methods for the extraction of gold, by utilizing more efficient processes and technologies. ... Mineral Processing & Extractive Metall. Rev ...
Carbonate ores are mainly found in Ukraine, China, and South Africa and these ores are upgraded primarily by gravity and magnetic separation process. Ore type plays a vital role during alloy production process also. Studies tell that demand for high grade ores is expected to grow and beneficiation of low grade ores will be imperative in the future.

Besides bioleaching using Acidithiobacillus bacteria and bioremediation using SRB, many mining organisms which inhabit ore deposits find applications in mineral beneficiation such as microbially induced flotation and flocculation.Acidithiobacillus spp can be used also to bring about microbially induced flotation and flocculation of minerals. . Heterotrophic bacteria such as …
The efficiency of physical separation techniques of heavy minerals usually encounters some set-backs. The reason is often not far from the inability to develop suitable mineral characterization strategies in order to comprehend/evaluate certain physicochemical features such as surface chemistry, specific gravity difference, magnetic and electrical …
