In case of iron pyrite the ore particles are magnetic in nature hence it can be concentrated using magnetic separation. Also as the formula FeS 2 suggests - does have sulphur atoms. Froth floatation is mainly used for sulphide ores. So, we can definitely use froth flotation process for concentration.

The pH values of 6 and 8 were selected as optimum pH for the lead and zinc flotation respectively. Lead, zinc, and iron flotation kinetic rates in the lead flotation stage at pH values of 6 and 8 were shown in Fig. 10. As it can be seen, there is a sharp increase in the lead recovery in the first minute and then the lead recovery gradually ...

The two major aluminum-containing minerals in iron ore are kaolinite (Al 2 (Si 2 O 5 ) (OH) 4) and gibbsite (Al (OH) 3 ). Some progress has been made in using flotation to separate kaolinite from hematite. High levels of phosphorus in iron ore attract a penalty because this makes steel brittle.

Pyrite depression in the flotation of copper ores is difficult due to the activation of Cu2+ ions on pyrite surface. In this study, the radical chain reaction involving the redox cycling of Cu(I/II) induced by sodium metabisulphite (MBS) was exploited to selectively depress the flotation of copper-activated pyrite at pH 8.0.

To have a positive control over flotation, it is necessary to be able to determine which and to what degree it is. A cheap way to take this measurement, LITMUS PAPER or a pH METER is used. This is a very important measurement for the flotation operator. Some minerals like Iron pyrite will not float well in an alkaline flotation circuit.

Wang et al. employed a process of screening-rinsing-fine grinding- selective flocculation-reverse flotation to produce an iron concentrate with an iron grade of 65.34 % and a S content of 0.037 % [24]. In the recovery of iron from PyC by flotation, the loss of iron is much greater and unavoidable.
