Material composition study sample
Rock ore appraisal: the purpose is to understand the intercalation and intercalation relation of the mineral in ore.
Microanalysis, elemental analysis, phase analysis, spectral analysis, assay analysis: in the final product shrinkage, generally is crushed to 1~3mm after shrinkage, and then grinding to less than 0.1mm.
Chemical analysis sample: generally less than 0.074mm.
Washing ore and pre-dressing sample (hand dressing, heavy medium sample) : same size as original.
Gravity separation sample:
Generally, it is determined according to the selected grain size. If the selected grain size cannot be determined, it is determined according to the chimeric grain size of the useful mineral. If it is assumed that the possible inclusion particle size is 10mm according to the Mosaic particle size, several particle size preparation tests such as 10~0.5-0.2~0mm can be prepared. At the same time, the weight of a single test is determined according to the specification of the equipment used in the laboratory.
Laboratory flotation and magnetic separation sample:
Grind to laboratory grinding grain size (1~3mm), but it is necessary to note that only one batch of single samples can be prepared at a time, the rest must be kept in a relatively coarse grain size.

Flotation test: Grinding fineness, pulp concentration, pulp temperature, pulp ph, reagent system, stirring and flotation tests were carried out. In some cases, tests should be carried out on the utilization of backwater, water quality, detoxification and desilting. Among them, the separation agent test should be combined with different separation methods to the main separation agent types, agent performance, dosage of agents and separation effect of the comparison test, choose the separation index is good, cheap, sufficient sources, little environmental pollution or easy to control the variety.
Magnetic separation test: Generally, magnetic induction intensity, material inclusion size, processing capacity, material classification and non-classification comparison test are carried out. The effect of ore water on the separation index and the effect of washed ore and unwashed ore on the separation index should also be tested for dry magnetic separation.
Calcination magnetic separation test: The calcining atmosphere, calcining temperature, calcining time, fuel type, dosage, volatile components, material size and other conditions were tested and the relevant technical parameters were determined.

3.The complex test of multi-ore point starts from the representative of ore sample
Many mines are multi - point ore supply, the mineral properties of each point are different. Representative sample collection method has been developed by Xinhai Mining:
Mining capacity planning and design - mining planning sampling test equipped with different kinds of samples - with the sample test, vice samples test - the final recommendation from the dressing - design - construction - according to plan in advance mining ore mining capacity planning and design in accordance with planning at the location of concentrator with ore - dressing production.
Ore characteristic: In this project, the raw ore is main oxide ore, and the 80% is powdery clay ore with particles of gold. The average grade of ore is 1.0g/t with less impurities, and gold is the only recoverable element.
Xinhai Solution: One stage closed grinding and classification - gravity separation - cyanidation leaching - electrolysis desorption, smelting - tailing treatment
In this project, 80% ores are powdery clay ore. The water content of raw ore is 25-30%. On the one hand, Xinhai Mining solves the block and feeding problems of powdery clay ore. On the other hand, Xinhai Mining applies gravity separation and cyanidation process, strengthen the gravity separation and grinding process. A part of gold particles are recovered in gravity separation, reducing the gold grade to leaching operation. Therefore the agent consumption amount is reduced, and so is the processing production cost.
Ore characteristic: In this project, the metal is rich in iron , phosphorus and other metal. The ore consists of redual mineral detritus formed by the weathering of unconsolidated igneous carbonates and the epigenic fibronecalcite and earthy hematite clays. The large amount slime interference the extraction of apatite, magnetite and other ores. Each mineral is wrapped in each other, and it is not easy to grind and dissociate. The phenomenon of mineral homology is serious, and the titanium, iron, manganese, aluminum and magnesium lattice replace each other, which makes the mineral composition very complicated.
Xinhai Solution: Deslime - one stage closed grinding and classification - one stage coarse flotation, one stage scavenging flotation and two stage concentrating flotation - concentrating tailings dewatering.
In grinding stage, the ball mill, pump and classifying hydrocyclone constitute the one stage closed grinding system. The overflow of classifying hydrocyclone flows to the high efficiency agitation tank, and enter the flotation flow after mixed with the agents. In flotation stage, the flotation concentrates are sent to the concentrate pumpbox though foam pump. In concentrate tailings dewatering stage, the concentrates pumps to dewater in the concentrate dewatering system, and the product is phosphate concentrate. The flotation tailings are sent to the tailings dewatering system by tailings pump. The dry tailings after dewatering are transported to tailings depot by dumper. The dehydrated filtrate is returned to the production cycle for use.
Ore characteristic: The mineral composition of the project ore is simple. The metal mineral is main pyrite, and the non-metal minerals are mainly quartz, calcite, mica and so on. The gold grade of raw ore is 4.70g/t. The silver grade is 4.63g/t. The iron is 20.10%, and sulfur is 20.55%. The recoverable element is gold.
Xinhai Solution: Two stage closed grinding - thickening before leaching - leaching absorption - tailing dry stacking
Two stage closed grinding is applied for grinding stage. The grinding product is screened by chip screen. The product under screen flows to the thickener. After thickening, the underflow of thickener is pumped to leaching operation. The gold bearing carbon is received through leaching, absorption, and carbon lifting, which is dealt with in the original gold factory. Leaching tailings dewaters in filter press. The back water is returning to the system, and the dry tailings depot in the tailings pond.
Ore characteristic: the metal mineral is natural silver, pyrite, hemitite and other ores. The gangue minerals includes quartz, feldspar, clay minerals and so on. The recoverable element is silver.
Xinhai Solution: Two and a half stage closed crushing - two stage grinding - flotation (one coarse, three scavenging, two concentrating) - two stage dewatering
In the crushing stage, Xinhai Mining applies the crusher and vibrating screen as two and a half stage closed crushing circuit. It reduces the crushing particle size obviously, and also reduces the load of grinding machine.
There is no the same mines in the world. Every mine should choose its suitable processing technology solution and equipment configuration. Xinhai Mining consists developing innovative technology and equipment quality at the same time, with strong technical strength as the core competitiveness and open-minded for every mine, customizing suitable processing technology and equipment and provide ideal mine efficiency.
