The present invention discloses a method for beneficiating fine-grained disseminated
copper ore by sectional ultrafine
grinding. A flotation process is carried out successively, including
grinding, roughing operation, first cleaning operation,
scavenging operation, and second cleaning operation. By developing an efficient selective inhibitor YSY-101,
gangue minerals such as
chlorite and
mica can be inhibited. An efficient selective collector YSP-106 is also developed, which can weaken the collection effect on
gangue minerals such as
chlorite and
mica, increase the floatability difference between the target mineral
copper sulfide ore and
gangue minerals, thereby improving the quality of
copper concentrate. In addition, for the inconsistent
dissemination particle sizes of bornite and
chalcopyrite in the present invention method, the
dissemination particle size of bornite is P80@25μm, and the
dissemination particle size of
chalcopyrite is P80@18μm. A sectional ultrafine
grinding process is developed, which can prevent over-grinding caused by one-stage ultrafine grinding and avoid affecting the concentrate quality due to insufficient dissociation of
chalcopyrite.
