A PROBLEM ON EXTRACTING MOLYBDENUM CONCENTRATE FROM A COPPER-MOLYBDENUM ORE

Abstract

The problem of the optimal extraction of molybdenum concentrate from a copper-molybdenum ore, using the dispersion of granulometric characteristic during the fine extraction process is proposed. Following the process of changing the shape of the particle size distribution and using the molybdenum extraction function in the flotation process, using the integral efficiency model, the optimal value of the dispersion of particle size distribution is estimated.
