Hematite Entrainment Frother Collector Iron ore flotation ABSTRACT Iron ore froth flotation has recently been used to obtain pure minerals due to the depletion of high-grade deposits. Amine collectors have often been used in cationic reverse iron ore flotation to achieve the separation with quartz impurities.
The hard hematite ore bodies with > 66 wt% Fe contain microplaty hematite and occur mainly near the contact with the underlying metavolcanic rocks, where they are surrounded by an aureole of hydrothermal carbonate alteration. Relict BIF bedding is generally preserved in the hard ore, with dense hematite alternating with porous hematite.
