Title:

IMMT Column Flotation System 

Value Proposition:

Enrichment of mineral or coal values from low grade ore, tailings & slimes.

Summary Application:

Advanced IMMT column flotation system would be useful for beneficiation of following ores & minerals:

  • Antimony
  • Graphite
  • Coal
  • Barite
  • Phosphate
  • Lead-Zinc
  • Chromite
  • Limestone
  • Dolomite
  • Beach sand

 

Advantages:
