AbstractCollector type and pulp pH play an important role in the lead–zinc ore flotation process. In the current study, the effect of pulp pH and the collector type parameters on the galena and sphalerite flotation from a complex lead–zinc–iron ore was investigated. The ethyl xanthate and Aero 3418 collectors were used for lead flotation and Aero 3477 and amyl xanthate for zinc flotation. It was found that maximum lead grade could be achieved by using Aero 3418 as collector at pH 8. Also, iron and zinc recoveries and grades were increased in the lead concentrate at lower pH which caused zinc recovery reduction in the zinc concentrate and decrease the lead grade concentrate. Furthermore, the results showed that the maximum zinc grade and recovery of 42.9% and 76.7% were achieved at pH 6 in the presence of Aero 3477 as collector. For both collectors at pH 5, Zinc recovery was increased around 2–3%; however, the iron recovery was also increased at this pH which reduced the zinc concentrate quality. Finally, pH 8 and pH 6 were selected as optimum pH values for lead and zinc flotation circuits, respectively.

Detailed characterisation and recovery of galena, sphalerite, and pyrrhotite from the beneficiation plant tailing of YouXi, China, was investigated. Different characterisation techniques viz. size analysis, chemical analysis, mineral analysis by Mineral Liberation Analyser（MLA）were carried out. Based on the appreciable differences in specific gravity, floatability and magnetic susceptibility between the desired lead, zinc, sulphur minerals and the gangue minerals, the flow sheets comprising desliming, flotation and magnetic separation, was used to recover galena, sphalerite, and pyrrhotite values. A lead and zinc concentrate of Pb 16.02%, Zn 35.1% and sulphur concentrate assays 35% S and 56% Fe can be produced from the tailing.

The tailing in a large lead-zinc-iron-sulfur multi-metallic mine has rich reservation in variety of metallic minerals. It has been difficult to recover because of all kinds of reasons. The challenges faced by lead-zinc ore beneficiation are, low grade and recovery of lead and zinc concentrate for fine disseminated grain size, high oxidation rate and close intergrowth. This paper presents a Pulp Potential Control Flotation by stages technique to improve the flotation performance of the lead-zinc ores. In the electrochemical potential controlling flotation processing, using DDTC as collector, the separation potential range of galena and sphalerite with pyrrhotite can be achieved. Flotation circuit of lead-zinc-silver tailing ore was achieved.

The authors carried out a mineralogical study and substantiated a concentration process developed for the lead-zinc ores of the Pavlovsk deposit. The concentration of the valuable component in each type of concentrate is determined by the amount of pyrite contained in the ore. It was established that the main loss of lead with flotation tailings is associated with oxidized phases, which are mainly found in fine material. Lead sulphides account for 30% of the entire waste tailings. Using the results of the mineralogical study, a flotation process was developed that involves a staged separation of commercial lead and zinc concentrates, as well as waste tailings. The obtained zinc concentrate has a consistently high quality of 57–58% with an 85–90% recovery. The metal concentration in the lead concentrate 1 is 45%, with the recovery being 43%. On the basis of the experimental results, the authors propose to use an X-ray radiometric separation method for coarse ore, which will help reduce the amount of incoming ore by 30% while minimizing the loss of lead and zinc.
