The importance of calcium, magnesium and iron ions in the scheelite-calcite flotation system - application to the Mittersill ore


The importance of calcium, magnesium and iron ions in the scheelite-calcite flotation system - application to the Mittersill ore

Chukwuma, O. C.

The specific objectives of this research are:

(i) Investigating the effect of calcium and magnesium ions in the scheelite-calcite flotation system, quantifying their impact and the underpinning mechanisms
(ii) Validating the hypothesis that iron ions mixed with sodium silicate depresses calcite.

Keywords: Scheelite; Water hardness; Hydrosol of iron ions and sodium silicate
