Pilot-scale investigation of two Electric Pulse Fragmentation (EPF) approaches for the mineral processing of a low-grade cassiterite schist ore

•The Electric Pulse Fragmentation (EPF) was tested at pilot scale on a schist ore.•Two approaches for the EPF step were investigated: pre-concentration and crushing.•Comparison with the use of conventional crushers was performed.•The treatment with the EPF led to a reduction in the Bond rod mill wor...
