The effect of oxidized starches on chalcopyrite flotation
Froth flotation utilizes the hydrophobicity of mineral surfaces and their propensity to be captured by rising air bubbles as the basis of the separation process. In a system consisting of chalcopyrite (a primary copper mineral), the existence of unwanted carbon minerals such as graphite makes the flotation separation arduous.
