Abstract

Limestone rejects from Bagalkot mines have been beneficiated by froth flotation with a view to reducing the magnesia content. In order to ascertain the effect of the main parameters such as sodium oleate concentration, sodium silicate concentration and pH on the MgO content, statistically designed experiments have been performed. The results indicate that under the optimum conditions arrived at limestone rejects could be beneficiated to produce a concentrate with magnesia. content meeting the specifications for cement manufacture.
