Description

Provides practising engineers and students of mineral processing, metallurgy and mining with a review of the common ore-processing techniques utilized in modern installations. Each chapter encompasses all the recent technical developments which are advancing at a rapid rate to deal with the processing of increasingly complex and refractory ores. New equipment and process routes are also discussed. This latest edition highlights the developments and the challenges facing the mineral processor, particularly with regard to the environmental problems posed in improving the efficiency of the existing processes and also in dealing with the waste created. Four appendices are attached, one of which contains a valuable collection of BASIC computer programs. The work is fully indexed and referenced up to 1992.

Table of Contents

Chapter headings: Introduction. Ore handling. Metallurgical accounting, control and simulation. Particle size analysis. Comminution. Crushers. Grinding mills. Industrial screening. Classification. Gravity concentration. Dense medium separation (DMS). Froth flotation. Magnetic and high-tension separation. Ore sorting. Dewatering. Tailings disposal. Appendix I: Metallic ore minerals. Appendix II: Common non-metallic ores. Appendix III: BASIC computer programs. Appendix IV: Mineral beneficiation references. Index.
