Progress in Mineral Processing Technology

Recent progress in every aspect of mineral processing, with special emphasis on processing of industrial materials, is dealt with by this text, both fundamentally and technologically. It also includes some papers on the application of mineral processing techniques to environment-related problems. Topics covered include: comminution; gravity; magnetic and electrostatic separation; flotation fundamentals; flotation technology; industrial minerals; coal processing; hydrometallurgy; gold and silver; agglomeration; dewatering; novel techniques; and modelling, simulation and control. This text is intended to be of use as a source for scientists, as well as practising engineers working in the field of mineral processing.
