Forth floatation process of concentration is based on the:
Forth floatation process of concentration is based on the:
- A. preferential wetting properties with the frothing agent and water
- B. difference in the specific gravities of gangue and ore particles
- C. difference in solubility of ganaue and ore particles in frothing agent and water
- D. difference in reactivity of gangue and ore particles with water and frothing agent.
Step-by-step solution
Froth floatation is based on the differential wetting properties of ore and gangue particles. Ore particles are preferentially wetted by the frothing agent (oil) and attach to air bubbles, rising to form froth, while gangue is wetted by water and sinks.
