1. Characterization of micaceous minerals occurring in phosphate ores in Brazil: emphasis on the interstratified phyllosilicates
Abstract Micaceous minerals were characterized in three phosphatic ores from mines in Western Minas Gerais State, Brazil, all having complex chemical and mineralogical compositions, with emphasis on interstratified phyllosilicates. Knowledge of the relationship between the physical and chemical characteristics of the phyllosilicates contributed to a better u

2. Development of innovation routes for iron ore using high intensity magnetic separators
Abstract The mineral processing of low-grade iron ores commonly generates large volumes of slime, which are disposed as tailings. Modern mining requires strives to eliminate the use of tailings dams in a maximum effort to increase metallurgical recovery, the security and reduction of the operational cost. This research aims for the recovery of iron contained

3. QUANTIFICAÇÃO DE MULLITA PROVENIENTE DE RESÍDUOS DE CAULIM DA REGIÃO AMAZÔNICA: USO DO MÉTODO DE RIETVELD
Mullite is used to obtain a refractory material, there are several factors that influence the synthesis process of mullite: the preparation of the mixture, the precipitation and the reaction of SiO2 and Al2O3. For the synthesis of mullite, samples of kaolin processing residues were used as precursor material, because it presents SiO2 and Al2O3 in its composi

4. Influence of Mn2+ ions on depression of quartz and spessartine in gondite ore
Abstract Low-grade manganese ores that are composed of manganese oxides, wad, quartz, iron oxides, gibbsite, and especially of spessartine (Mn3Al2(SiO4)3) are known as gondite. Spessartine is a mineral with a high content of silica (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) that causes a decrease of the enrichment in manganese oxide concentrates by flotation, giving this o

5. Using static, kinetic and metal mobility procedures to evaluate possibilities of coal waste land disposal at Moatize Mine, Mozambique
Abstract Coal mine waste rocks produced during mining and beneficiation can affect the environment due to land degradation and acid mine drainage generation. However, proper characterization and treatment of mineral processing wastes creates options for safe disposal, enhancing the environmental performance. The aim of this study was to use static and kineti

6. INFLUENCE OF OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS OF MECHANIZED HARVESTING ON SUGARCANE LOSSES AND IMPURITIES
ABSTRACT Operational conditions of mechanized harvesting can affect the quality of harvested sugarcane. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the influence of the displacement speed and cutting height on the quality of the raw material during the mechanized harvest of sugarcane. Vegetable losses were accounted for in the field by manual collection o

7. Influence of water level in mine sequencing applied to strategic mining planning
Abstract Developing mine sequencing involves a number of factors and a large amount of information, and consequently the profitability of the project will strongly depend on the production schedule. A mining project may be conditioned to non-optimal sequencing, which may affect the economic results of the project and also lead to an inadequate utilization of

8. Microwave Assisted Ultra-Fast Method to Synthesize Carbonate-Phosphates, Na3MCO3PO4 (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) - Relevant Materials Applied in Sodium-Ion Batteries
Although largely used in mobiles and electric vehicles applications, insertion batteries based on Li-ion technology are high-cost devices. These applications require high-performance energy storage systems with high-energy and high-power densities, which are better attained by Li-ion technology. However, stationary applications such as power plants and unint

10. Plastics floatability: effect of saponin and sodium lignosulfonate as wetting agents
Abstract Froth flotation is the most common process in mineral processing. For the separation of plastic mixtures by flotation, the use of appropriate wetting agents is mandatory. The floatability of six post-consumer plastics was studied at different concentrations of the wetting agents, saponin and sodium lignosulfonate. Also, the influence of size and sha

11. HPGR as alternative to fused alumina comminution route: an assessment of circuit simplification potential
Abstract A considerable portion of energy consumption and, as a consequence, operational costs in mineral processing, is associated with comminution. High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR) are appealing for their energy efficiency and resulting lower operating costs. This article evaluates this technology as an alternative to the conventional fused alumina comm

12. Developing a stepwise approach to simulate a hammer mill through the Whiten model - the adherence for a gold ore
Abstract Comminution represents a large portion of the capital and operating cost of a mineral processing plant. In 1983, Cohen estimated that comminution processes could account for 30% to 50% of the power consumption of the mill, and typically represents 50% of the operating costs of a mine. Therefore, its optimization is directly related to reduction of t
