A PROCESS FOR BENEFICIATION OF CHROMITE FROM CHROME ORE BENEFICIATION PLANT TAILINGS

摘要

The invention relates to an disclosed is a process for beneficiating chromite gravity plant tailings. The process is also adaptable to reduce chromite losses from the existing circuit. A sample is first classified using hydrocyclone and floatex density separator followed by concentration using wet shaking table. The desired concentrate recovered in this manner contains significantly reduced levels of undesirable gangue. The beneficiated chromite ore shows improved chromium concentrations and chromium to iron ratios when compared to the original ore.
