Mineralogical Characterization and Gravity Separation of Lean Grade Mixed Copper Ore of Malanjkhand Deposit

Physical beneficiation of heavy minerals – Part 1: A state of the art literature review on gravity concentration techniques

“…13 illustrates the schematic of a typical MMGC operation process; and Table 17 , Table 18 respectively enlists the major parameters/variables, and the merits-demerits involved in the MMGC process [ 56 ]. Studies have been carried out/reported on HMs adopting this very method by researchers, such as Tozsin et al [ 102 ] and Jena et al [ 123 ]; who reported respectively, the investigation of the washability characteristics and cleaning potential of MGC on LG Turkish lignite coal samples from Sutkans-Erzurum deposits, and the mineralogical characterizations and pre-concentration studies of low-grade Cu mineral ore from Malanjkhand deposits in India.

“…A Mozley mineral gravity concentrator was the concentrating unit or equipment utilized in this gravity pre-concentration investigation by Jena et al [ 123 ]. The researchers thus, reported a successful upgrade of the low-grade mineral ore from about 0.5% Cu and 74.1% SiO 2 to about 5.3% Cu and 33.0% SiO 2 , respectively.…”
