Separation and Concentration
Physical beneficiation techniques incorporating gravity separation, magnetic separation, and electrostatic separation are available. Equipment includes air classification, air and wet concentrating tables, jigs, spirals, hydrocyclones, heavy media cyclone and vessel, wet magnetic drum, dry rare earth, etc. The focus of these separation techniques is to define and utilize differences in physical properties of materials as the basis for separation.
