The flotation performance of a complex lead and zinc ore were investigated by changing the grinding environments. Four groups of testing were conducted with different depressants or their combinations. Flotation results, size-by-size analysis, pulp potential (Eh) and dissolved oxygen (D0) were studied. It was found that the addition of depressants during grinding was beneficial to increasing the separation efficiency.

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 collecting capacity of xanthate, dithiocarbamate and their combination was studied. The effect of activity with respect to the gas-liquid interface of derivative forms of reagents represented by physically sorbed forms of collector was considered. Flotation experiments of lead-zinc ore from the Gorevsky deposit showed an increase in flotation performance when using reagent combinations. The use of a collector with pronounced chemisorbable properties in combination with a reagent having surface-active properties towards the gas-liquid interface caused an increase in the recovery of useful component. It was determined that activity of the physical form of sorption affects the selectivity of lead and zinc recovery - as activity of the physically sorbed form of reagent decreases, the selectivity of recovery grows.

The study on potential-controlled flotation test of differential flotation process was carried out in the light of the change of a certain ore properties. The test used self-developed EMZ-91, as well as conventional collectors of ethyl thio carbamate and butyl xanthate for the flotation of copper, lead and zinc ores respectively, in which the copper sulfate was used as the activator of zinc mineral. The new differential flotation process, which is using lime to regulate pulp potential, produced the copper concentrate grading 27.18% copper at 73.37% recovery, the lead concentrate grading 66.00% lead at 63.00% recovery, and the zinc concentrate grading 55.27% zinc at 87.69% recovery.

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.

Abstract A facile method for fabricating superhydrophobic and superoleophilic powder with 5A zeolite and stearic acid (SA) is reported in this study. The effect of different contents of SA on contact angle (CA) was investigated. The maximum water CA was 156.2°, corresponding to the optimum SA content of 1.5 wt%. The effects of SA and the mechanism of modified 5A zeolite powder by SA were analyzed by sedimentation analysis experiment, FTIR analysis, particle size analysis, and SEM characterization. The SA-modified 5A zeolite was used as an oil sorbent to separate oil–water mixture with potential use in floating oil. The separation efficiency was above 98%.

Cyclic Changes

Tectonic evolution of the Earth is a principle global factor responsible for uneven distribution of lead and zinc reserves in geological time. Cyclic changes in productivity of lead-zinc ore-formation processes resulted from periodical amalgamation of most blocks of continental crust, formation, stabilization and final break-up of supercontinents. Many features of age spectrums of lead and zinc reserves are caused by gradual increase of volume of continental crust resulting from accretion of island arcs to ancient cratons, widening of distribution of ensialic environments of ore-formation and increasing role of continental crust in magmatic processes.

Separation of arsenic and valuable metals (Pb, Zn, Cu, Bi, Sn, In, Ag, Sb, etc.) is a core problem for effective utilization of high arsenic-containing copper smelting ashes (HACSA). This study developed an effective separation process of arsenic, lead, and zinc from HACSA via alkali leaching followed by sulfide precipitation. The separation behaviors and optimum conditions for alkali leaching of arsenic and sulfide precipitation of lead and zinc were established respectively as follows: NaOH concentration 3.81 M; temperature 80°C; time 90 minutes; liquid-to-solid ratio 4:1; agitation speed 450 revolutions/minute (r/min) and 2.0 times of theoretical quantity of sodium sulfide (Na2S); temperature 70°C; and time 60 minutes. The results indicated that the leaching rates of As, Pb, and Zn were 92.4%, 36.9% and 13.4%, respectively. More than 99% of lead and zinc were precipitated from the alkali leachate. The scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy study confirmed that arsenic was dissolved from HACSA into the alkali leachate. Furthermore, lead and zinc were precipitated as sulfides from the alkali leachate. The proposed process was a good technique for separation of arsenic and enrichment of valuable metals for further centralized treatment separately. It provided high separation efficiency of arsenic and valuable metals, as well as low environmental pollution.

Lichen Flora

AbstractEighty-seven lichen taxa were collected at four localities near the leadzinc mine at Maarmorilik. These are listed alphabetically and grouped according to their ecological preferences. Lichens, which in Greenland are restricted to calcareous rocks and alkaline soil substrata, are well represented in the Maarmorilik area. In contrast, ferrugineous lichens appear to be comparatively rare. The lichens around the mining town are assumed to have accumulated significant concentrations of airborne lead and zinc. However, no damage to the lichens caused by heavy metals was observed.
