Flotation is the main beneficiation method for obtaining powdered antimony concentrate, and flotation is included in almost all beneficiation processes. The types of ores used for processing are: mono-antimony sulfide ore, sulfide-oxidized mixed antimony ore, tungsten antimony gold polymetallic sulfide ore, antimony arsenic gold sulfide ore ...
Especially for sulfide antimony ores, the most common beneficiation method is flotation. Therefore, antimony ore consisting of stibnite mineral obtained from Tokat-Turkey region was used in this study. Due to the low antimony (5.06%Sb) and the high Arsenic (1.38%As) content, it is an important requirement to increase the Sb content of this ore ...

The successful cyanidation of gold ores containing appreciable amounts of arsenic or antimony sulphide minerals such as orpiment, realgar, and stibnite is usually difficult or even impossible. Extractions are low and the solutions soon become 'foul.'. The gold in such ores could be free and uncoated, and no trouble in dissolving it in clean ...
Rejection of deleterious impurity minerals containing antimony and bismuth from sulphide deposits by flotation has been reviewed. The key antimony minerals of commercial interest to remove are stibnite, tetrahedrite, and jamesonite, while the main bismuth mineral is bismuthinite.
Arsenic and antimony are impurities that reduce the economic value of concentrates due to the environmental problems they cause. The removal of these impurities by hydrometallurgical means has been highly studied for sulfide copper concentrates using different leaching agents in an alkaline medium (NaClO, H2O2, …
