What is the property of necessary for an ore to be concentrated by electrostatic separation? |
The ores should conduct electricity It should be a sulphide ore The ore particles should be magnetic in nature The ore particles should be heavier than the gangue particles |
The ores should conduct electricity |
When ores are good electrical conductors, electrostatic separation is a technique used for concentration or separation. It is founded on the idea that when an electrostatic field is created, ore particles that conduct electricity become charged and are attracted to electrodes with the same charge, which causes them to be all ejected. |
