Beneficiation of a Low-Grade Barite Ore in Myanmar

Abstract:

Beneficiation of a low-grade barite ore assaying 64.32% BaSO₄ was conducted by flotation using sodium oleate and sodium silicate. The effect of grinding fineness, type and dosage of flotation reagent in roughing were investigated. Based on the optimum flotation conditions, a close circuit flowsheet was established. Finally, two barite concentrates assaying 96.32% and 91.26% BaSO₄ can be obtained at the recovery of 91.94% and 5.25%, respectively, by applying two-time roughing and two-time cleaning operations.
