The physical separation (also known as beneficiation) typically involves several processes, such as mining, comminution, and flotation (Chelgani et al., 2016). In particular for graphite beneficiation, a multistage grinding and flotation process (can be up to 10 or more stages) is commonly employed (Peng et al., 2017, Peng et al., 2023).
Page ID. Beneficiation is any process which removes the gangue minerals from ore to produce a higher grade product, and a waste stream. Beneficiation may involve physical or chemical processes. Often, as in the case of panning for gold, the desired ore or metal is denser than the gangue. The latter can be suspended in a stream of water …
