Fig. 1 (a) shows the flotation recovery of cassiterite and quartz as a function of BHA concentration in a weakly alkaline slurry (pH = 8) with a Pb 2+ concentration of 20 mg/L. The figure illustrates that the recovery of cassiterite grows rapidly first and then slowly with increasing BHA concentration, while the recovery of quartz increases slightly.

1. Introduction. Froth flotation is the selected method for the separation of quartz and feldspar. In the conventional process, feldspar is floated from quartz by using hydrofluoric acid (HF) as activator for the feldspar and a cationic collector (amine) at pH 2–3 (O'Meara, 1939). (1979) reported that HF creates a large difference in the …
