FAQS on lead zinc flotation

Q: What is the primary purpose of lead zinc flotation?

A: Lead zinc flotation separates lead and zinc minerals from ore using differences in surface properties. It relies on reagents to make target minerals hydrophobic, allowing them to attach to air bubbles for recovery. This process maximizes metal yield and purity.

Q: How does zinc flotation differ from lead flotation in mixed ores?

A: Zinc flotation often follows lead flotation to prioritize metal recovery. Selective depressants or activators are used to suppress zinc during lead flotation, then activated later for zinc extraction. pH control and reagent sequencing ensure efficient separation.

Q: What reagents are critical for zinc froth flotation?

A: Common reagents include xanthates as collectors, sodium cyanide or zinc sulfate as depressants, and frothers like MIBC. Lime adjusts pH to optimize mineral surface reactivity. Proper reagent dosing ensures stable froth and high-grade zinc concentrate.

Q: What challenges arise in lead zinc flotation processes?

A: Challenges include mineral intergrowth, similar surface properties of lead/zinc sulfides, and reagent interference. Over-grinding or inadequate liberation reduces selectivity. Managing slimes and fine particles is also critical for froth stability.

Q: Why is froth flotation preferred for zinc recovery?

A: Froth flotation efficiently separates low-grade zinc ores by exploiting surface chemistry. It achieves higher recovery rates than gravity methods for fine particles. The process is scalable and adaptable to varying ore compositions.
