Synopsis

A technological determination for flotation of lead—zinc ores is offered, which affords an opportunity to reduce or to stop the addition of common used depressants (NaCN, ZnSO4). Laboratory and plant tests have been made. Results obtained show the perspective of cyanide — free technology.

Some problems by realization, as well as the ways of their elimination are revealed.
