A review of flotation reagents for bastnäsite-(Ce) rare earth ore
Sodium fluorosilicate was previously used as a depressant for gangue minerals in Bayan Obo [61], but it was replaced with the more selective H205 collector, and sodium fluorosilicate is now used as a flotation activator. Sodium silicate is the current alternative for sodium fluorosilicate in the flotation of Mountain Pass ores [61, 129]. In ...

Challenges in processing nickel laterite ores by flotation
It should be added that segregation of laterite ores prior the flotation process has shown some improvement in upgrading nickel. The segregation process relies on the addition of calcium chloride or sodium chloride and carbon allowing the formation of nickel and iron chlorides at temperatures between 900 and 1150 °C. Iwasaki et al., (1961) and …
