Investigations on the depressant effect of sodium alginate on galena

Introduction. Galena is a common and typical lead-containing mineral on the earth (Chen et al., 2011, Huang et al., 2019b, Wang et al., 2019). It is usually associated with other sulfide minerals in the ore deposits, such as chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2), sphalerite (ZnS) and marmatite ((Fe,Zn)S) (Hayes and Ralston, 1988).Flotation is the commonly used …Web
