Radiotracer investigations of the flotation process in copper ore processing

  • 1. Institute of Physics and Nuclear Techniques, Krakow (Poland)

Description

Optimization of copper ore processing requires in particular the investigation of the flotation process. 64Cu induced in natural ore by activation was used as a tracer. Detailed measurements were performed in an industrial flotation plant consisting of 14 cells. As a result the mean residence time of different grain size fractions of natural copper sulphide was determined for all parts of the flotation plant together with the efficiency of the flotation process.
