2.4 Fluorspar Flotation. Flotation of fluorspar must be extremely selective when producing acid grade concentrate. This selectivity is essential as the ratio of concentration is low, often up to 80% or more of the entire tonnage, and must be floated in the rough circuit.
Froth flotation exploits the plastic surface characteristics (hydrophobic or hydrophilic) to separate the target material from the rest of the ore. Different purification grades of fluorspar are required for various applications, and a variety of froth flotation techniques employing various chemicals have been developed.
1. Introduction. Froth flotation is a complex process known for more than a century [Citation 1].It has one of the largest tonnage capacities among separation technologies [Citation 2].The process is a cornerstone of numerous industries, such as wastewater treatment (e.g. sewage treatment and water purification), the energy sector (e.g. bitumen recovery from …

This study provides an up to date review of tannins, specifically quebracho, in mineral processing and metallurgical processes. Quebracho is a highly useful reagent in many flotation applications, acting as both a depressant and a dispersant. Three different types of quebracho are mentioned in this study; quebracho "S" or Tupasol ATO, …
Fluorite (CaF2), as an important strategic mineral source, is usually separated from calcite by the common froth flotation method, but this separation is still not selective enough. The development of a selective collector and/or depressant is the key to achieving high selective separation. 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP or H4L) is …
The selective flotation of sericite and fluorite can be achieved with a DDA concentration higher than 20 × 10 −5 mol/L. Though, the sericite recovery was only …

systematic column flotation tests were conducted to improve the quality of fluorspar concentrate with a minimum number of cleaning stages. Experimental procedure A 5.0-m-high (with a provision for variation), 74 mm-ID Plexiglas flotation column was installed in the plant. The feed injection point was located approximately 3.5 m from the bottom.

In nature, bastnäsite-(Ce) often coexists with gangue minerals, making its structure complex. Its similar physical and chemical properties with calcite, fluorspar, barite, and other gangue minerals make it challenging to achieve effective flotation separation, requiring the use of highly selective collectors [71].
