Beneficiation processes

Beneficiation processes involve separating valuable minerals from unwanted mineral materials (gangue) to improve ore quality. Techniques include crushing and grinding to reduce size, followed by physical or chemical methods like gravity separation, flotation, or magnetic separation. These processes increase the concentration of the target mineral, making extraction more efficient and economical. Essentially, beneficiation refines raw mined ore into a more purified form that’s suitable for further processing or directly used in manufacturing.
