It is brittle and has no flexibility. It is a poor conductor of electricity and heat, is not easily oxidized at room temperature, … Read more
Feldspar ores are key raw materials for the ceramic and glass industries and often contain impurities that must be removed to improve their quality. Feldspar is frequently associated with other minerals, such as quartz and mica, making selective separation a complex task. Impurities can affect the quality and characteristics of the final product, reducing its … Read more
The progress of ilmenite flotation research The theoretical content of TiO2 of ilmenite (FeTiO3) is 52.63%, the main mineral for extracting titanium and titanium dioxide. The ilmenite beneficiation process depends on deposit type, ore properties, and mineral composition. Since the properties of primary titanium ore are relatively similar, and the target minerals are relatively simple, … Read more
Lithium is an essential strategic resource material, the lightest metal element in nature, and has electrochemical solid activity. Widely used in emerging fields such as batteries, ceramics, glass, aluminum, lubricants, refrigerants, nuclear industry, and optoelectronics. Therefore, lithium is known as “the new energy metal of the 21st century”, and lithium is also known as “an … Read more
Mining shaking tables are versatile and critical equipment in the mineral processing industry, used to separate valuable minerals from waste based on density. These stages combine lateral and longitudinal motion with water and other media to create a stratified bed of particles, allowing for efficient separation. What stands out about the shaker is its ability … Read more
It is very common for minerals to coexist with each other. There are fewer and fewer feldspars that can be mined directly and more and more associated minerals such as iron ore. We will separate and remove associated minerals and other harmful impurities to obtain high-grade feldspar concentrate. Harmful impurities are mainly small, such as … Read more
Barite, also known as barytes, is a naturally occurring mineral with the chemical formula BaSO4. With its high specific gravity and chemical inertness, it is used in oil and gas drilling fluids and in producing ceramics, paints and plastics. However, impurities such as quartz and calcite limit its commercial value. The beneficiation process is adopted … Read more
Known for its exceptional strength and high melting point, tungsten is a vital metal in various industries. Tungsten is essential in producing many important products, from aerospace engineering to electronics manufacturing. However, this versatile metal does not occur naturally in its pure form and is found in almost every kind of rock, from which it … Read more
Lithium is a high-value metal essential in producing batteries from smartphones to electric cars. As demand for lithium-ion batteries continues to grow, the need for efficient and cost-effective methods of extracting and refining lithium from ores has become increasingly important. Beneficiation is the process of removing unwanted minerals or impurities from ore to increase its … Read more
Manganese ore is an important natural resource, an important resource for many industrial applications. Including steel and non-ferrous metal production, specialized manganese ore beneficiation processes are required to extract the purest ore. Generally speaking, manganese ore is divided into carbonate ore and oxide manganese ore. Among them, manganese carbonate is one of the main raw … Read more
