2. INTRODUCTION Flotation is the separation of particles from a mixture by causing some particles to collect on the surface of bubbles. Floatation is an extractive process where various minerals can be selectively extracted. For example, in poly-metal ores such as Pb-Zn-Cu, floatation allows separate extraction of Pb, Cu and Zn. The …

Froth flotation, also called ore flotation when used in mining applications, is a method for physically separating particles by having air bubbles that selectively adhere to specific surfaces. The particles with attached air bubbles are carried to the surface and removed. Froth flotation is one of the most widely used methods for ore beneficiation.
