Abstract:
Based on the properties of the lead-zinc sulfide ore from Lancang, the preferential flotation for lead while suppressing zinc is studied. The results show that when the grinding fineness is 80 % -0.074 mm and the reagent regime is optimum, the process of once fast flotation and preferential flotation for lead while suppressing zinc can obtain the lead concentrate with Pb grade 66.49 %, Zn grade 1.56 % and lead recovery rate 89.04 %, and the zinc concentrate with Zn grade 46.45 %, Pb grade 3.45 % and zinc recovery rate 92.20 %. The lead and zinc are both recovered in a good way.
