Mineral Beneficiation

Mineral beneficiation is the process of concentration, and was first described in Agricola's famous treatise, De Re Metallica, published in 1556. The earliest ores to be discovered and processed were of such high grade that they did not require beneficiation, and they satisfied mankind's needs for nearly 3,000 years. ...

This paper reports the results of a detailed mineralogical and geochemical study of low-grade nickel laterites from four laterite sections in the North Oman Mountains. Mineral Liberation Analysis (MLA) techniques were used for the first time on these laterite paleosols for mineralogical characterization because of their ability to collect ...

Mineral Beneficiation: A continuing African paradox or …

Mineral beneficiation at present takes place largely in countries that have no mineral endowment (Baxter, 2005, p. 25). Mineral beneficiation is defined as the process in which mineral products are transformed through different processes and by adding other inputs (Baissac, et al., 2015, p. 10). Thus, mineral beneficiation, refers to the
