GOLD-BEARING PYRRHOTITE, ARSENOPYRITE RECOVERY BY FLOTATION

A method of selectively recovering an arsenopyrite, pyrrhotite or like mineral from a material containing such a mineral and pyrite which includes the steps of providing a slurry of the material, adding a dialkyl (C3-8)-dithiophosphate to the slurry, passing a gas through the slurry to cause the min...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method of selectively recovering an arsenopyrite, pyrrhotite or like mineral from a material containing such a mineral and pyrite which includes the steps of providing a slurry of the material, adding a dialkyl (C3-8)-dithiophosphate to the slurry, passing a gas through the slurry to cause the mineral to be carried to the surface of the slurry and report in a first float concentrate, removing this concentrate from the slurry, activating the mineral remaining in the slurry by adding a suitable water-soluble copper salt to the slurry, adding a monoalkyl (C3-10)-dithiocarbamate to the slurry, passing a gas through the slurry to cause mineral to be carried to the surface of the slurry and form a second float concentrate, removing the second concentrate from the slurry and combining the first and the second float concentrates.
