Mineral processing solutions, by ore type
A flowsheet is defined by the ore, not by a product list. This section covers the ore types we build plants for — the minerals in each, the difficulties they present, the techniques that apply, and the equipment that follows from that.
How to use this section
Start from your ore, then follow the process
Each ore page is built the same way, so you can compare them directly. Nothing here is a fixed prescription — the flowsheet is confirmed after ore testing.
Identify the ore
Mineralogy and liberation size decide which separation methods are applicable.
Read the route
Where an ore type splits into different routes, they are shown separately.
Match equipment
Every equipment item links to the product page with models and capacities.
Confirm by testing
Final sizing and recovery are established by bench or pilot testwork.
Ore types
Seven ore types covered
Each page follows the same structure: ore types, difficulties, techniques, process route, equipment and selection notes.

Gold Ore Processing
金矿选矿 — Hard-rock and placer gold follow two different flowsheets. The first question is never "which machine" — it is whether the gold is…

Iron Ore Beneficiation
铁矿选矿 — Magnetite and hematite are not interchangeable. Magnetite responds to low-intensity magnetic separation after fine grinding; hematite usually needs gravity, high-intensity magnetic separation,…

Copper Ore Processing
铜矿选矿 — Sulphide copper and oxide copper are treated by completely different processes. Sulphides are concentrated by flotation; oxides usually cannot be floated economically…

Chrome Ore Beneficiation
铬矿选矿 — Chromite is dense and weakly magnetic, so gravity does most of the work. The difficulty is usually not separation but keeping the…

Tin Ore Processing
锡矿选矿 — Cassiterite is dense but brittle. The engineering problem is not separation — it is liberating the tin without grinding it into slimes…

Manganese Ore Beneficiation
锰矿选矿 — Oxide and carbonate manganese ores call for different treatment. Oxide ore upgrades by washing, gravity and magnetic separation; carbonate ore frequently needs…

Silica Sand Processing
硅砂选矿 — Silica sand is a purity problem, not a concentration problem. The work is removing iron, clay and heavy minerals, then grading to…

Technical knowledge directory
Notes organised by ore type and by process step. Articles are added progressively and published only after technical review.
Tell us what you are processing
The ore type, the target product and the capacity are enough for us to propose a route. We will tell you what needs testwork before it can be fixed.
