STUDY ON THE NEW TECHNOLOGY OF THE FLOATATION SEPARATION OF ZINC AND COPER SULFIDE MINERALS OF Liwu ABSTRACT There is an increasing demand for zinc and coper metals as a major raw material with the development of economy and it becomes urgently necessary to exploit refractory zinc and coper ores as the easily-separate zinc and coper ores increasingly reduce. Zinc and coper sulfide metals of Liwu were studied in this subject, the mineralogy of sample indicates that the test material belongs to refractory metallic sulphide ore, with the primary minerals in the materials being chalcopyrite, marmatite and pyrrhotite. The efficient concentration of copper is achieved using the new copper collector LP-01 in a mild slurry medium, without the negative effect for marmatite depression due to high alkali medium during copper flotation; and the zinc-sulphide is also successfully achieved by controlling the pH values of slurry mediums at around 9.5 during roughing stage and at 10~11 during reconcentrating stage, respectively. This technology has obtained relatively qualified copper concentrate and zinc concentrate while applied in industry. The ore contain 1.42% Cu 、0.98% Zn, then the copper concentrate which contain 25.91% Cu、1.08% Zn is received, and the recovery of Cu is 9 1.42%; the zinc concentrate which contain 2.09% Cu 、33.22% Zn is received, and the recovery of Zn is 45.76%. Industrial tests of this technology put up in concentration plant of LiWu copper ore company in Sichuan at May 2007, the result of industrial tests show that the copper concentrate which contain 24.85% Cu、1.15% Zn is received, as the green ore contain 1.38% Cu 、1.01% Zn, the recovery of Cu is
