 Digital www.allendigital.in [ 173 ] Introduction Metallurgy : The branch of chemistry which deals with the method of extraction of metals from their ores by profitable means. Metal : The element which tends to form positive ion is called a metal. Minerals : The various compounds of metals which occur in the earth's crust and are obtained by mining are called minerals. In earth crust order of abundance of elements is. O > Si > Al > Fe A mineral may be single compound or a mixture. Ore : The mineral from which a metal can be extracted profitably and easily is called an ore. All ores are minerals but all minerals are not ores. Gangue or matrix : The undesirable impurities present in an ore are called gangue. Type of Ores : (I) Combined Ore : Metals placed above H in electrochemical series are generally reactive i.e. why they generally found in combined state. (a) Halide ore / Sulphate ore / Oxy ore : Metals are highly reactive (b) Oxide ore : Reactive metal (Al to Sn) (c) Sulphide ore : Metal placed near H or below H. (Pb, Hg, Cu, Ag) (II) Native Ore : Metal placed below H in electrochemical series are generally found in native state.

Two process – (1) Physical (2) Chemical 1. Physical Concentration : (I) Gravity Separation (Levigation) : This method of concentration of the ore is based on the difference in the gravities of the ore and the gangue particles. Powdered ore is agitated with a running stream of water. The lighter gangue particles are taken away by water while heavier ore particles settle down. Used for concentration of oxygenated ores. (II) Froth Floatation Method This method is mainly employed for the concentration of sulphide ores. The method is based on the different wetting characteristics of the gangue and the sulphide ore with water and oil. The gangue particles are preferentially wetted by water and the ore particles by oil. The crushed ore along with water is taken in a floatation cell. Various substances are added depending on the nature of the ore and a current of air is blown in. The substances added are – (i) Frothers :– They generate a stable froth which rises to the top of the tank. Example of frother is pine oil, Eucalyptus oil, fatty acids etc. (ii) Collectors or floating agents :– They attach themselves by polar group to the granules of the ores which then become water repellent and pass on into the froth. Example: sodium ethyl xanthate, pine oil and fatty acid. (iii) Froth stabilisers :- They stabilise froth. Ex. Cresol, Aniline etc. (iv) Depressants :– These reagents depress the floatation property and help in the separation of different sulphide ores present in a mixture. for eg. in case of an ore containing ZnS and PbS the depressant used is NaCN. It selectively prevents ZnS from coming to the froth but allows PbS to come with the froth. NaCN + (ZnS + PbS) ⎯⎯→ Na2[Zn(CN)4] + PbS (remain in the solution) (comes to the froth Powdered Ore + Oil + Water Compressed air Light ore particle in froth Concentrated Ore Gangue [Froth floatation process]
