Abstract:

The pebble discharged from SAG mill has a grinding media characteristic of big hardness and high spherical degree.A flotation process research of copper and sulfur mixed flotation-coarse concentrate grinding-copper sulfur separation had been carried out by using stone and steel ball as mixing coarse grinding media and the whole stone as re-grinding media when the flotation feed is the coarse spiral classifier in copper-sulfur gold mine.Closed-circuit tests were carried out on the basis of the best condition test.The results show that the final copper concentrate with copper grade of 18.45%,gold grade of 16.68×10-6,copper recovery of 86.89%,and gold recovery of 55.78% was otained,which is higher than the actual production index.It is confirmed that the pebble used as grinding media has a good prospect in fine grinding of rough concentrate.

Key words: pebble from SAG, grinding media, copper and sulfur gold mine, copper and sulfur bulk flotation, copper and sulfur separation
