Effect of cuprous cyanide, dry and wet milling on the …
Since it is known that the flotation of sphalerite from the complex lead–zinc sulphide minerals is enhanced under more oxidizing conditions, the flotation recovery of sphalerite from the Rosh Pinah composite was expected to be higher after dry milling, with resulting poorer flotation selectivity between galena and sphalerite.
