Currently, many attempts have been taken to purify the hematite concentrate, such as different flotation routes, addition of surfactant, and desliming, etc. [7][8][9] [10] [11][12][13][14][15 ...

The copper sulphide sample used in this work was a flotation concentrate from the chalcopyrite-bornite type of copper mineralization. The particle size of the mineral samples used in the study was less than 38 μm (d80). The concentrate primarily consisted of chalcopyrite, bornite, covellite, hematite and pyrite.

From the literature, it was found that using dodecanoic acid (lauric acid), the flotation of hematite reported a maximum recovery in the pH range 6–8.5 and flotation of hematite, using potassium dodecyl hydroxamate as collector, showed a maximum recovery at pH 5.5 while using sodium dodecyl sulphate, hematite showed a high recovery at pH < 6.

Reverse flotation is a key process for the purification of iron concentrate after magnetic separation [2,3,4]. Anshan-type iron ores are typically low-grade, with magnetite and hematite as the primary iron minerals, and minor occurrences of martite and semi-martite.

Hematite and quartz present in banded iron ore are intimately associated with one another and require fine grinding for the liberation of mineral particles.
