Extracting the lead materials from the ore is a multi-step process. First the lead ore is ground into small particles that are less than 0.1mm, giving the ore a texture similar to table salt. Next the lead powder is put through a flotation process, that involves mixing the lead ore with water, the addition of pine oil and the introduction of
Separating antimony and lead through evaporating Sb 2 O 3 also cause antimony pollution, for part of Sb 2 O 3 loss in the air. Moreover, the recovery rate of antimony and lead in DR-RS process is only about 70% and 80% respectively . In other words, this is not a desirable treating process for jamesonite.

Since it is of great difficulty to separate lead and antimony from jamesonite by mineral methods, metallurgical methods must be taken to utilize the ore more effectively . At present, jamesonite ore is treated by conventional industrial pyrometallurgy process shown in Fig. 1 [2] .
lead processing
This process results in molten lead and dross. Dross refers to the lead oxides, copper, antimony and other elements that float to the top of the lead. Dross is usually skimmed off and sent to a dross furnace to recover the non-lead components which are sold to other metal manufacturers. The Parkes process is used to separate silver or gold from

Tailings are the waste material from the ore processing phase, and often contain toxins left over from the ore separating process along with small amounts of heavy metals that were not fully removed. Lead is almost always contained in sulfide ores as galena, or lead sulfide 45. Waste rock material from mines that contain metal sulfides can lead
Ore sorting is also a simpler process with a small footprint. Benefits Of Dense Medium Separation. While dense medium separation can only rely on density to distinguish valuable materials from waste, it has the advantage of being able to sort a wider range of particle sizes. With ore sorting, the largest particle size should be no more than 3
byproduct lead from a complex sulfide ore using an acid system at atmospheric pres sure and moderate temperature. The pro posed method consists of--I. Leaching a sulfide ore with an acidic FeC13 solution to form insoluble silver and lead chlorides. A portion of the zinc is also extracted: Ag2S + 2 FeC13 + 2 AgCl (A)

A representative sample of lead–zinc ore enrichment tailings from Belousovskaya Enrichment Plant (East Kazakhstan region) was taken as the object of research. The ore sample was provided with a moisture content of 10%, and therefore it was dried and disintegrated in natural conditions. The sample of tailings was averaged by the ring-cone method.
Galena Lead Ore Processing. Galena is kind of lead mineral with big density 7.4-7.6g/cm3 and gangue density of 2.2-3g/cm3. Its big embedded granule and density difference makes gravity a great beneficiation method to gain high grade galena concentrate. For gravity separation of galena, the separator involved is mainly jigger.

The problem of treating oxidized lead-zinc ores for the production of high-grade lead zinc flotation concentrates is a complex problem due to the nature of the ores and to the soft sliming characteristics of the lead and zinc minerals. The ore for treatment is a lead-zinc carbonate ore in a mixed siliceous-lime carbonate gangue.

Froth flotation is a process for separating minerals from gangue by taking advantage of differences in their hydrophobicity.Hydrophobicity differences between valuable minerals and waste gangue are increased through the use of surfactants and wetting agents.
Coke is added as fuel, and the sulfur in the ore concentrate combusts to sulfur dioxide gas. This sulfur dioxide is an important byproduct of the lead refining process. It is captured at a separate acid plant and converted to sulfuric acid, which has many uses.
The beneficiation process of lead-zinc ore is generally crushing, grinding, gravity separation for waste disposal and froth flotation. Crushing section and equipment The three-stage one closed circuit crushing section is currently the most widely used crushing process in large and medium-sized lead-zinc concentrators.
6.1 Process Overview 6.1.1 Lead and Zinc Ore Mining Lead and zinc ore is nearly always mined below the surface of the ground. Some veins of ore lie as deep as several thousand feet but most deposits lie close to the surface. Lead and zinc ore is mined almost exclusively in underground operations, though a few surface operations do exist.
The lead ore can be upgraded by different methods and lead beneficiation equipments according to different types of ores, but generally speaking, lead gravity separation, lead floatation separation, or combination of gravity separation and floatation separation can be involved in the lead processing line to get high grade lead concentrate.
