An investigation into the effect of ionic strength of plant water on valuable mineral and gangue recovery of a platinum bearing ore from the Merensky reef

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Higher solids and water recoveries were obtained at higher ionic strength. The increase in the ionic strength in the absence of any depressant caused an increase in Cu and Ni recovery.
