Gravity separation test of tungsten ore

Gravity separation test of tungsten ore

Sand tungsten ore is an important metal ore mainly used for manufacturing materials such as tungsten steel and alloys. In the mining process of tungsten ore, due to the complexity and variability of the ore, gravity separation tests are often required to improve the grade and recovery rate of the ore. This article will introduce the operating steps and precautions of the tungsten ore gravity separation test.

Preparation before the experiment

1. Determine the source and properties of the test ore. The source of the test ore should be representative mining samples, and the properties of the ore include mineral composition, ore structure, ore particle size, etc.

2. Determine the testing equipment and testing plan. Select suitable gravity separation equipment and testing plan based on the properties of the tested ore. Commonly used gravity separation equipment includes heavy medium separation, flotation, gravity separation machines, etc.

3. Inspect and maintain the testing equipment. Check the operation status of the equipment and the damage of mechanical components, and carry out necessary maintenance and repairs.

2、 Test operation steps

1. Crushing and grinding of ores. Crush and grind the test ore to make its particle size suitable for gravity separation operations.

2. Reselect operation. Place the ground ore into the gravity separation equipment for gravity separation operation. The purpose of gravity separation operation is to separate the ore into different grades and recovery rates according to the density difference of ore.

3. Treatment of gravity tailings. The tailings after re selection need to be treated to meet environmental requirements and resource utilization purposes.

4. Experimental data processing and analysis. Process and analyze the data during the experiment to obtain experimental results and conclusions.

3、 Precautions

During the testing process, attention should be paid to safety, and operating procedures and safety regulations should be followed.

2. The source and properties of the test ore should meet the test requirements to ensure the reliability of the test results.

3. The selection of testing equipment and testing plan should be based on the properties and testing requirements of the test ore to ensure the effectiveness and repeatability of the test.

4. The processing and analysis of experimental data should be scientific, accurate, and objective to obtain correct experimental results and conclusions.

Summary:

The gravity separation test of tungsten ore is an important means to improve the ore grade and recovery rate. During the test process, it is necessary to pay attention to safety, select suitable test equipment and test plans to ensure the reliability and effectiveness of the test results. The test results are of great significance for the production and economic benefits of mines.
