Effect of Tannin on Compound Collector Adsorption and Stibnite and Arsenopyrite Flotation from Complex Ore

Abstract

Using the scanned laser microscopy, the new experimental data on the influence exerted by a phytomodifier represented by tannin on adsorption of a compound collector represented by modified sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate at arsenopyrite and stibnite were obtained, which allowed substantiating the method of selective production of antimonic concentrate from complex gold-bearing arsenide ore by new reagents and enabled the optimized selection of reagent regimes.
