Overview

Demonstrates a strong correlation between statistical analysis of IP parameters and flotation response in copper sulphide ores, suggesting IP's value in geometallurgy.

Key Points

  • To evaluate induced polarisation parameters as indicators of metallurgical performance for copper sulphide ores.
  • Integrated induced polarisation measurements with mineralogical and flotation data.
  • Analyzed artificial pyrite-sand mixtures and five ore samples from Mount Isa.
  • Conducted mineral liberation analysis and collectorless flotation tests.
  • Statistical analysis showed strong correlation between resistivity and chalcopyrite recovery (R2 = 0.90, p = 0.99).
  • Moderate correlation between chargeability and chalcopyrite selectivity (R2 = 0.72, p = 0.93).
  • Findings indicate IP parameter's effectiveness in capturing features governing flotation behavior.
