An ore is a type of rock that contains minerals with important elements including metals . As We all know, there are numerous ores including metal ores and non-metallic minerals. For example iron ore, copper ore, chrome ore, molybdenum ore, bauxite ore, platinum ore, zinc ore, cobalt ore, silver ore, gold ore, nickel ore, titanium ore, tungsten ore, tin ore, uranium ore, etc.
Now, I'd like to introduce the general metal Ore Processing. As follow:
1. Crushing and grinding with the metal ore. This is an important stage in the ore processing and it will determine the final results of processing. We offers you related crushing and grinding machines. Such as jaw crusher for primary crushing, impact crusher or cone crusher for secondary crushing, and vertical shaft impact crusher for tertiary crushing. Apart from stationery crushers, we have a range of mobile crushers for metal ore processing. Grinding machines are raymond mill, ball mill, vertical mill, trapezium mill, ultrafine mill and so on. Also, we’ve designed a world-famous solution for your first stage of ore processing: Ore crushing plant
2. Addition of process water (generally decanted from your tailings pond) to form a slurry
3. Addition of lime towards the ore, and cyanide treatment for the slurry, to leach the gold and silver into solution. We merely list solution examples of gold ore and silver ore. maybe can use this technique or different minerals should take various ways in accordance with their home.
4. Addition of carbon to adsorb dissolved metals and removes them in the slurry.
5. Stripping the metals from the carbon by acid washing and circulation of your caustic cyanide solution. Now, we just take metal ores for instance.
6. Precipitation from the gold and silver by electro-winning. This stage is merely suitable for metal ores including gold ore and silver ore. If processing non-metallic minerals, we ought to take other solutions to process.
7. Smelting of metal products into bars of doer bullion
8. Pumping of the barren slurry (tailings) towards the tailings storage facility.
Main headings of metal ore processing stages
1. Grinding and size classification to reduce the ore right down to a fine particle size.
2. Leaching and adsorption to extract the precious metals from the rock.
3. Precious metals recovery.
