35.5.1 The flotation process. One of the most used processes to concentrate mineral from a mine is flotation. To perform a flotation process the mineral is finely ground (particle sizes between 50 and 150 μm), then the ground mineral is mixed with water in a container called a flotation cell.Afterward it is introduced into the flotation cell via an external medium and small bubbles …
