At the Mount Isa copper deposit, framboidal or 'carbonaceous' pyrite has been an ongoing challenge to the copper concentration operation, reducing the flotation circuit's efficiency. Previous work by Yenial-Arslan et al. showed that high pyrite recoveries could be strongly linked to the prevalence of fine-grained pyrite.

Porphyry copper deposits (PCDs) are the most important sources of copper worldwide, accounting for more than 60% of the annual production of copper and they constitute about 65% of known copper ore resources [5]. Ores excavated from these deposits are typically processed by flotation—a separation technique based on the difference in surface
