This is a method of concentration of ores used exclusively for Sulphide ores. Principle involved is the difference in the wetting properties of the ore and the gangue particles. The sulphide ore particles are preferentially wetted by oil while gangue particles are preferentially wetted by water. A mixture of water and pine oil is taken in the tank. The powdered Sulphide ore is dropped in. Compressed air is blown in through the agitator. The agitator is rotated several times. Froth containing ore starts rising up. The impurities settle down and are let out through the outlet down at the bottom. Froth is dropped into a settling tank where the pure ore sinks to the . Thus the concentrated ore is ready for the further processing.
