There is rich fluorite mineral resources in Heyuan, Guangdong, China. With the refinement of consumer market, fluorite ore is used with different requirements. In order to meet these customer requirements, fluorite ore must be processed appropriately. Then what are the fluorite ore beneficiation methods? Here, we show you a fluorite ore case in Heyuan.

For fluorite ore dressing, there are mainly 3 methods-hand selection, flotation and gravity separation. Fluorite ore dressing methods using should be according to the nature and the characteristics of fluorite ore, for example, combination method of hand selection, gravity separation and flotation usually used for crude grains disseminated fluorite ore dressing, it can not only get part of the high-quality metallurgical grade fluorspar lump ore , but also reduce the investment and operational costs of the subsequent flotation devices. However some disseminated fluorite ore mine need flotation method to achieve the desired concentrate grade. Now we take a look at the fluorite mine in Heyuan:

The picture above shows Heyuan fluorite ore, from which we can see the coarse disseminated fluorite mine. It is high grade ore associated carbonate and quartz gangue. According to experience, this kind fluorite ore needs gravity separation being able to get good results , so we carried out a small fluorite beneficiation tests using jigging concentrator, and get an ideal dressing effect. Customers are very satisfied with the result and placed order on Forui jigging concentrator.

For Heyuan fluorite ore, we can use a hand-selection-gravity separation process. Hand-selection to get big fluorite ore concentrates, and the tailings after hand-selection can be processed by jigging concentrator after crushing and screening to get part of metallurgy particle fluorite ore. At last the tailings can be fed into the final flotation plant for further purification.
