The zinc is floated with additional quantities of a collector and frother after conditioning with lime and copper sulfate. The pH of the lead circuit is approximately 8.0 and the zinc is 10.5 to 11.0.

The value of gold was reported to be two-and-one-half times the value of silver in the code of Menes, the founder of the first Egyptian dynasty. A gold mine in Nubia in Nile valley ...
Read More2001.2.1 Gold often coexists with pyrite as micron and submicron-inclusions and pyrite is therefore floated to maximize gold recovery in gold processing plants. In practice, different types of grinding media and a great range of pH and collector concentrations are used for pyrite flotation without scientific guidance.

About two-thirds of the world’s silver resources are contained in base-metal sulfide deposits (Reese, 1991). These ores are beneficiated almost exclusively by flotation.

Flotation may be carried out at higher pH values of 9 to 10, since this favours the depression of talc minerals and avoids the use of expensive gangue depressants.
