ABSTRACT. Recently, beneficiation of iron from low-grade ores with high impurities has been a matter of discussion. Flotation is one of the most effective technologies for the upgrading of low-grade, finely grained iron ores.
An experimental programme based on statistical analysis was used for optimizing the reverse Rotation of silica from non-magnetic spiral preconcentrate of Kudremukh iron ore. Flotation of silica with amine and starch as the Rotation reagents was studied to estimate the optimum reagent levels at various mesh of grind. The experiments were first carried …

Flotation of iron ore Over the past few decades, silica flotation processes have increased, a trend that will continue as more complex ores have to be mined and the steel industry requests higher-grade iron ore concentrates with lower levels of impurities. For more than 40 years, we have been developing flotation collectors for magnetite

1. Introduction. The flotation processes performed in the main iron ore beneficiation plants located in the Iron Quadrangle region (Brazil) consist of flotation of natural fine particles (below 0.15 mm, without grinding) or flotation of all the material after grinding using ball mills (run of mine).

The collector is the most important reagent used in the iron ore flotation process. The function of the collector reagent is to promote affinity between mineral particles and air bubbles by formation of a water-repellent coating on the surface of the mineral particle. Most collectors in current use are heteropolar; i.e., they contain both a polar
