How to Process Oxidized Lead-Zinc Ore by Flotation
The sulphidized lead minerals are subjected to flotation using xanthates or mercaptans and pine oil to produce a flotation concentrate which is cleaned two times to produce a high grade marketable lead concentrate. The flotation tailing from the lead section passes to a wet cyclone to make a primary sand-slime separation.

Silver Lead Zinc Ore Processing Method using Flotation
Silver, Lead & Zinc Flotation Circuit #2. The recovery of silver minerals occurring in a lead-zinc sulfide ore is efficiently accomplished using the above flowsheet. The process consists of selective flotation to produce a mixed silver-lead concentrate for maximum smelter return and a separate zinc concentrate.

Yunnan lead processing project has complex lead ore to deal with. The main lead minerals are galena and lead alum. It applies the flotation sulphide ore – desilting – flotation oxidation ore processing technology according to the characteristic of lead ores. The final recovery rate of lead concentrate is …
Lead Zinc Separation by Flotation - Froth Flotation ...
Some of the metals that can do the stone are copper and lead. At a pH between 8-9 lead can activate sphalerite to cause it flotation. So the reason is during the flotation of the two there may be lead re dissolution from galena which may activate sphalerite to cause it flotation. It may best if you are doing bulk flotation of the two.
Copper-Lead-Zinc ores
Copper-Lead-Zinc ores. The Cu-Pb-Zn separation process is among the most challenging flotation separations primarily because the first step must entail bulk flotation of the two most readily floatable minerals with these two minerals separated in a differential flotation stage.
Flotation Reagents - Mineral Processing & Metallurgy
This data on chemicals, and mixtures of chemicals, commonly known as reagents, is presented for the purpose of acquainting those interested in froth flotation with some of the more common reagents and their various uses.. Flotation as a concentration process has been extensively used for a number of years. However, little is known of it as an exact science, although, various investigators have ...
Introduction to Mineral Processing - Chevron Phillips Chemical
The process is identical in principle to the flotation of other minerals. The figure on the right is a simplified version of a Pb/Zn flotation circuit. The main difference in lead/zinc flotation is that zinc is usually depressed while lead (and copper) is floated. The tailing from the lead flotation circuit is the feed to the zinc circuit.

【Process Introduction】 The lead minerals in ores are mainly galena, cerussite, and lead alum. The lead sulfide is galena, while the main lead oxide is cerussite. The lead processing technology uses flotation. 【Application】 There are lots kinds of lead minerals, which have flotation differences between each other.
1 Froth Flotation – Fundamental Principles
1 Froth Flotation – Fundamental Principles Froth flotation is a highly versatile method for physically separating particles based on differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to specific mineral surfaces in a mineral/water slurry. The particles with attached air …
Flotation | ore dressing | Britannica
Flotation is widely used to concentrate copper, lead, and zinc minerals, which commonly accompany one another in their ores. Many complex ore mixtures formerly of little value have become major sources of certain metals by means of the flotation process.
Lead-Zinc ores
The established lead-zinc ore flotation processing scheme is to add zinc sulphate (ZnSO4) to the grind to control metal ion activation (sphalerite depression). Often metabisulphide or other sulphidation chemicals are added with the zinc sulphate for iron sulphide mineral depression.
CN101602030A - Floatation process of complex lead zinc ...
The invention relates to a floatation process of complex lead zinc ores, which uses the following process flows: ore grinding-floatation of lead in a lead flotation area-floatation of zinc in a zinc/sulfur mixed flotation area-floatation of zinc in a zinc middling re-flotation area; the invention uses floatable process like lead zinc full-opening, effectively removes carbon and iron sulfide ...
