Abstract

A process for separation of the mineral components of a copper/molybdenum sulfide ore by flotation including (a) crushing and grinding the ore to liberate the minerals; (b) in a primary flotation circuit, adding a molybdenum collector selected from the group of hydrocarbon oils, and a frother; (c) floating a primary (molybdenum) concentrate in the primary circuit in the absence of a copper collector; (d) directing the primary molybdenum concentrate to an upgrading separation circuit to produce a final molybdenum concentrate; and (e) directing the non-float of the primary circuit to a secondary scavenger circuit for recovery of copper and additional molybdenum with addition of a copper collector, the process being conducted at a natural pH essentially determined by the ore composition and the quality of the water used to form the pulp, without addition of substantial amounts of alkaline or acid pH modifiers sufficient to change the pH.
