Abstract

Interpreted data of the phase analysis of the Far East ore bodies made it possible to characterize rebellious behavior of ores under study. The researchers propose an integrated flow sheet composed of gravitational preparation, flotation and metallurgical processing flow sheets for beneficiation of rebellious auric-arsenical ore, and present the beneficiation parameters for ores of moderate sorption capacity.
