Flotation separation remains a cornerstone in mineral processing, leveraging the differential surface properties of minerals through tailored adsorption of reagents. This process relies on the ...

Bioflotation represents an innovative approach to mineral processing that utilises biological agents – such as microorganisms and their biosurfactants – to enhance the separation of valuable minerals ...

The world cannot have enough of the third element on the periodic table. From smartphones and laptops to state-of-the-art EVs, all are powered by lithium batteries. The demand for metal is only going ...

DCVC and Voyager co-lead investment in startup harnessing customized proteins to separate critical minerals, starting with rare earth elements; nearly $1M in government grants also secured BOULDER, ...

Flotation test work confirms selective recovery of titanium minerals into a froth flotation concentrate with the rejection of high levels of unwanted gangue minerals. Whole-of-ore flotation, as an ...

Figure 1: Loading and Elution of PLS at pH 1.0 This important milestone demonstrates the ability to load and concentrate rare earths (REE’s) in the presence of high concentrations of non-REEs, ...

Pulling essential minerals from the ground is dirty work, and most of the stuff miners extract is useless sediment. In some Chilean copper mines, for instance, hundreds of thousands of tons of ...

Additional critical mineral process improvements for the Alberta Hydrometallurgical Facility The NICO Project consists of a planned mine and concentrator in the Northwest Territories (“NWT”) and a ...
