Cyanide suppresses pyrite. Also cyanide is depressant for chalcopyrite (and other copper sulfides). Na2S, Metabisulfite (Na2S2O5) suppresses all sulfides. CaO. At low concentrations in the solution suppresses pyrite. When the concentration in the solution suppresses chalcopyrite! Of course, there are other depressants for pyrite (more …
In general, gold-pyrite or gold-copper minerals associations have no problems and gold can be recovered without major problem. The lack of good liberation is a problem and the comminution circuit is the key element. The treatment of auriferous pyrite or silver sulphosalts with gold, have an excellent recovery by flotation.
Pyrite cinder (PyC) containing polymetallics is difficult to use due to the low grade of metals and complex mineral phase composition, the low reutilized rate of which causes the wastage of resources. In this paper, a novel approach based on mineral phase reconstruction was proposed to recover Cu, Co, and Fe from PyC. A feasible reduction …
Early generations of coarse-grained pyrites that formed under higher-temperature porphyry-style conditions have low trace element contents compared with …
Pyrite Pyrite, often known as fool's gold, can be one of the most dangerous minerals. Credit: Stacie Da Ponte under CCBYSA2.0. In some ways, the sulphide mineral pyrite has the opposite problem to galena. Composed of iron and sulphur, pyrite can contaminate ground water and streams via tailings waste from mines.
The interaction of pyrite with Cu ions is significant in mineral processing. Copper-containing minerals can release Cu ions during grinding and flotation, which …
Pyrite oxidation is economically important in mineral flotation and leaching, two industrial methodologies used to separate pyrite from other minerals of value. …
Pyrite, the most abundant sulphide mineral in the earth crust is mostly found in close association with arsenopyrite in most auriferous complex ore bodies.
Pyrite lowers the quality of base metal concentrates and increases the amount of sulfur compounds produced in the base metal extraction processes. Combustion of high-sulfur coals poses serious environmental problems due to sulfur dioxide emissions. Therefore, depression of pyrite is desirable in the concentration of base metal sulfides …
Despite its resemblance to gold, Pyrite is distinct in its brittleness and hardness, rating 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness (just a bit softer than quartz, for comparison).
2020, Physicochemical Problems of Mineral Processing. ... Preferential association of copper minerals with a hard matrix mineral (quartz) and a hard microwave-absorbent mineral (pyrite) resulted in a significant change in liberation behaviour. Surface properties of the microwave-treated and non-treated samples were characterized via XRD, XPS ...

Jan 01, 2012 1.2. Chalcopyrite Ore Production The sulfide ore minerals including chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2), sphalerite (ZnS), galena (PbS) provide the major sources of the world's base metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, respectively), whereas pyrite is virtually ubiquitous as a metalliferous mineral in sulfide ore deposits (Crang and Vanghan, 1994).The first step …
subsequent operations will be termed as Ore Dressing or Mineral Beneficiation. So mineral dressing or ore dressing is commonly regarded as processing of raw ores to yield marketable products by such physical means those do not destroy the physical and chemical identity of the ore. Economic Justification of Mineral Dressing: 1.
There is a potential problem when the silver minerals are partially oxidized during the geological process. If the silver size particles of 3-4 microns, the problem is serious due to the easy oxidation of these particles. The problem can be detected by performing a mineralogical study. Basically, electrum and silver sulphosalts suffer this …
In recent years, most of works focused on the development of dry-type gravity technologies for coal cleaning. Finally, gravity separation challenges and future applications to address problems in environmental pollution and mitigation, waste recycling and reprocessing, circular economy, and mineral processing are discussed.
However, when Au is mineralogically associated with the sulphides, or when high pyrite content in the ore poses a problem, different processing routes are possible (e.g., bulk flotation of Au and the sulphides, or sequential flotation). The use of lime for pH control is critical to the process.
The ball mill is a rotating cylindrical vessel with grinding media inside, which is responsible for breaking the ore particles. Grinding media play an important role in the comminution of mineral ores in these mills. This work reviews the application of balls in mineral processing as a function of the materials used to manufacture them and the …

However, the term "pyrite framboid" has been used to describe other framboid-derived structures, such as atoll structures, throughout the mineral processing literature (Can et al., 2021, Croxford and Jephcott, 1972, O'Donnell and Muller, 2018, Taylor et al., 2010).For example, at Mount Isa, the term framboidal pyrite or carbonaceous …
The mineral composition of copper ores delivered to the processing plant (producing 65 000 t per day) in the Santo Domingo project (Chile) includes pyrite, chalcopyrite, bornite, covellite, chalcocite, quartz, carbonates, plagioclases, and aluminosilicate clays. The initial content of copper in the ores is 0.3%, but the …
The ratio of the hydrophobic to hydrophilic species and their distribution on mineral surfaces significantly influences the floatability of sulfide minerals. Through the flotation test, the influence of different reagents on pyrite flotation was examined. The interaction mechanisms between copper xanthate and pyrite were evaluated using advanced …
The more flotation collector you have on, the higher you will need to increase that pH for effective pyrite depression. You also need to insure your pyrite and copper minerals are well liberated for good chemical separation by pH. In froth flotation, depressing pyrite or any metal is impossible if minerals are locked.
Mineral processing is the art and technology of treating ores from mining areas in order to separate the valuable minerals from waste rock. It includes processes to provide a more concentrated material for the procedures of the following extractive metallurgy.
Pyrite is one of the most common and geochemically important sulfide minerals in nature because of its role in the redox recycling of iron (Fe). It is also the primary cause of acid mine drainage (AMD) that is considered as a serious and widespread problem facing the mining and mineral processing in …
The effect of sulphite ions on the xanthate-induced flotation of copper-activated pyrite has been studied. Various techniques have been used to identify the plausible mechanisms of interaction of sulphite with both collector and pyrite surface. ... Physicochemical Problems of Mineral Processing.

The pyrite grade in the fresh tailing sample and in the flotation product was determined indirectly from the content sulfur, copper and iron. Calculations carried out considering the elemental chemical composition presented in Table 1 and the mineralogical species that contained sulfur, identified by the XRD analysis, allowed to determine that …
The remaining pyrite could be removed by roasting a finer grind of the high density fraction in air to convert pyrite to magnetite and the gas SO2, leaving the noble metal behind. If you do it this way, you need to take precautions to vent the gas from the work area and remove or dilute it in the area surrounding your shops.
