The Gravity Separation is a method to
separate minerals according to their
specific gravity and sedimentation
velocity in the medium.
In the process of Gravity Separation, ore
particles with different specific gravity
are separated in the moving medium due
to their different motion speed, direction
and path.
In the process of Gravity Separation,
water, air, heavy liquid and suspension
are used as the separation medium.
1. Processing of Gravity Separation:
The particle size range of the Gravity
Separation material is large, especially suitable
for the treatment of coarse material with a
certain proportion difference, the separation
efficiency of the treatment of fine particles is
often lower.Compared with other methods, the
Gravity Separation is simple and low cost.The
main applications includes:
(1) gold, platinum and other precious metals
selection;
(2) tungsten, tin ore separation;
(3) processing contains rare metal elements of
the mineral placer, such as zirconium, titanium
mineral beach placer separation;
1. Application scope of Gravity Separation:
(4) hematite, limonite separation;
(5) separation of manganese ore;
(6)coal preparation plant separation of
coal and gangue;
(7)some non-metallic minerals and
gangue separation, such as asbestos,
mica, kaolin, sepiolite and diamond, etc.;
(8)with the Gravity Separation for pre-
concentration,for those who are mainly
treated by flotation of copper, lead, zinc
and other non-ferrous metal ores.
9) Gravity Separation of particle size
separation such as grading and mud
removal.
