Separation And Concentration Of Stibiconite, William Howard Painter
Separation And Concentration Of Stibiconite, William Howard Painter
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Primarily, the purpose of this study is to separate stibiconite from associated gangue minerals. The ore containing antimony, as an oxide stibiconite, occurs in Mexico and its benefication would be an advantage to the mineral resources of that country. While the deposit from which this ore is derived is American owned, the resource is presently non-economic. A concentrate must be derived of suitable grade for its use in a smelting operation and from which metallic antimony would be produced.
An Investigation Of The Effectiveness Of Certain Organic Compounds In The Flotation Of Manganese Oxide Minerals, Johannes P. Dreyer
An Investigation Of The Effectiveness Of Certain Organic Compounds In The Flotation Of Manganese Oxide Minerals, Johannes P. Dreyer
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
This thesis has to do with the selective flotation of the manganese oxide minerals in an ore from Charco Redondo Mine, Oriente Province, Cuba. Since a sound knowledge of the nature of the emulsion-induced flotation process of these minerals does not exist, experimental research constitutes the most valuable resource for determining the extent to which different reagents influence the process. Moreover, a correlation of experimental results with the chemical and physical properties of the minerals and reagents can lead to the improvement of existing theories regarding the mechanism of a process.
