Mining Industry: What is classification in terms of mineral beneficiation?
That's interesting! Can you tell me more about magnetic separation techniques?
Sure! Magnetic separation techniques use magnets to attract magnetic minerals such as magnetite and other ferromagnetic minerals. These minerals are then separated from the non-magnetic minerals in the ore body. This process is commonly used in the processing of iron ore but can also be used for other minerals such as chromite and ilmenite.
