DetailsSphalerite, the dominant ore-mineral of Zn, is mainly composed of Zn and S, but Fe concentrations up to 15 wt% are observed due to substitution for Zn, or as inclusions (Cook et al., 2009). In addition, minor and trace elements (e.g., Cd, Mn, As, Ag, Cu, Co) are also hosted in sphalerite in a wide range of concentrations (Cook et al., 2009).

DetailsCommodity Info: Free-milling gold-bearing quartz veins with auriferous sulfides. Gold averaged 0.814 fine with secondary silver. Ore averaged 0.5 to 1.45 ounces/ton, with richer pockets near the surface. Sulfides included abundant pyrite and varying amounts of galena, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, and arsenopyrite.
DetailsTreatment of lead and zinc ores begins with milling. Milling is a multi-stage crushing and grinding operation. It involves coarse crushing followed by wet grinding. Crushing is usually a dry operation that utilizes water sprays to control dust. Primary crushing is often performed at the mine site, followed by additional crushing at the mill.

DetailsThe concentration of zinc, lead and silver in the mineralized rock extracted from the Jayula and Tesorera pits in the San Cristóbal mine is very low; it is therefore necessary to have the material undergo a process designed to increase the content of these elements and thus obtain products with a commercial value. In this sense, the concentration plant was designed to obtain two …
DetailsSilver, Lead & Zinc Flotation Circuit #2. The recovery of silver minerals occurring in a lead-zinc sulfide ore is efficiently accomplished using the above flowsheet. The process consists of selective flotation to produce a mixed silver-lead concentrate for maximum smelter return and a separate zinc concentrate.
DetailsMachining is a term used to describe a variety of material removal processes in which a cutting tool removes unwanted material from a workpiece to produce the desired shape. The workpiece is typically cut from a larger piece of stock, which is available in a variety of standard shapes, such as flat sheets, solid bars, hollow tubes, and shaped beams.
DetailsChalcopyrite and sphalerite particles appear commonly, but represent a much lower portion on the total comminution product. The shape of the particles is commonly angular, but grain tips can be often subrounded. Pyrite clasts are more angular than sphalerite and chalcopyrite clasts, both in many cases comminuted to smaller grains compared to ...

DetailsMining and milling methods Historic: Processing typically involved milling to produce zinc-, lead-, and (or) copper-rich concentrates that were subsequently smelted. Modern: Processing typically involves milling; resulting concentrates are smelted. Stopes are backfilled by coarse tailings and fine t ailings are stored in surface impoundments.
