Particle Size Distribution Effects that Should be Considered when Performing Flotation Geometallurgical TestingBy K C. Runge, E Tabosa, A Jankovic
Flotation recovery in geometallurgical modelling is usually predicted based on relationships developed from batch flotation testing of different ore types. These batch flotation tests are usually perf
