Nickel ore is broken into sulfide copper-nickel mine and nickel oxide ore, whose ore dressing and processing methods are entirely different.
By far the most notably ore dressing method of sulfide copper-nickel mine is flotation, and magnetic separation and gravity separation is frequently secondary beneficiation. In the flotation of sulfide copper-nickel ore, we sometimes use collector and frother. We have a guideline to ascertain the flotation procedure that is it's better to make copper into the nickel concentrate while as far as possible in order to avoid nickel into your copper concentrate. Considering that the nickel in copper concentrate is of huge loss in the smelting process, while the copper in nickel concentrate is often more completely recovered.
It truly is shown inside picture above while using the sulfide copper-nickel ore beneficiation process.
Nickel oxide ore currently used crushing and screening methods to pre-remove bulk rocks with weak degree of weathering and low nickel. Because nickel within the nickel oxide ore often scattered in gangue minerals available as isomorphism as well as their grain sizes are quite fine, nickel oxide ore cannot be enriched by mechanical dressing methods. However, they should be only sent for direct smelting. european jaw crusher
While in the both beneficiation technique of sulfide copper-nickel mine and nickel oxide ore, nickel ore crushing and grinding are crucial. CS cone crusher is traditionally used for nickel ore crushing. You will find standard cone crusher and short head cone crusher. Both them happen to be used as nickel ore crusher. After crushed by cone crusher, materials needs to be grinded by rod mill and ball mill before being deliver to flotation. Vibrating screen is needed to find different sizes of nickel ore. The screening equipment is also needed for nickel ore crushing and grinding. nickel beneficiation plant
SBM is professional crushing equipment and grinding machine manufacturer. We now have designed special CS cone crusher for nickel ore crushing and ball mill for nickel ore grinding. The CS cone crusher and ball mill are of top quality which includes both passed international ISO9001:2000 certificate and UE, CE certificates. Other than CS cone crusher and ball mill, SBM crushing equipment also includes jaw crusher, impact crusher, VSI crusher and SBM grinding machine also includes coal mill, Raymond mill, vertical ore mill, trapezium grinding machine, coarse powder mill, etc. Our goal would be to provide our customers with best products and services.
