For example, assume that raw ore is a two component system comprised of a valued mineral and host rock having relative densities of 6.30 and 2.65, respectively. The amount of valued mineral is 30% of the total ore.Total Solid Mass, M: Mineral + Host Rock – 30 + 70 = 100 Total Volume, Vs: Total Solid Relative Density

Koleini et al. (2012) showed that the flotation recovery of chalcopyrite from a complex Cu-Zn sulfide ore was higher for dry ground feed versus wet ground ones. Dry ground pyrite can generate higher H 2 O 2 in the pulp compared to other mineral sulfides [10]. It is understood that pyrite depression is enhanced under high oxidizing conditions.

The LJ ore had a copper content of 0.62%. The main gangue minerals in the LJ ore were quartz, mica, illite, chlorite and calcite. Most of chalcopyrite in the ore was closely associated with pyrite and gangue minerals, occurring mainly in the grain size range of 0.02–0.6 mm.

This means that 95.7% of the copper present in the ore was recovered in the concentrate, while the rest was lost in the tailings. (c) The % Cu Loss can be calculated by subtracting the % Cu Recovery from : % Cu Loss = 100 – 95.7 = 4.3% This means that 4.3% of the copper present in the ore was lost in the tailings.
