As far as productivity is concerned, the decrease of high-grade ores has been one of the stumbling blocks toward the achievement of maximum recovery of metals while, on the other hand, the complexity of minerals therein makes it difficult to profitably extract metals using only conventional methods. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book presents eight specialized chapters that focus on the exploration of the complexity of minerals that are likely to negatively influence the recovery of values, as well as the development of adequate technologies capable of improving the process of mineral concentration and\/or metal recovery from complex minerals in a sustainable manner. It reviews the various physicochemical properties of minerals that are likely to pose a challenge during the attempt to recover values using conventional methods. It also elaborates on the recent technological development that has been considered by researchers to improve the recovery of metals from gangue-dominated minerals while ensuring cost-effectiveness and minimal adverse environmental impact. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudience\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to academic researchers from the fields of mineral processing, hydrometallurgy, geochemistry, environment, chemistry, engineering, and professionals including mining plant operators, environmental managers in the industries, government regulatory bodies officers, and environmentalists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Optimization of the Mechanical Comminution -- The Crushing Stage 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNgonidzashe Chimwani\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Introduction 2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 The Role of Crushers 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Conclusion 31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Challenges Related to the Flotation Process of Complex Phosphate Ores 41\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNheta Willie and Hlahane Morake D.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Introduction to the Geology of Complex Phosphate Ores 42\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Phosphate Rock Beneficiation Processes 44\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Froth Flotation of Sedimentary Phosphate Ore 48\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Challenges Facing Flotation of Phosphate Rock 54\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.5 Future Research Directions 58\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.6 Conclusion 58\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Increasing Ionic Strength and Oxyhydroxo Species in Process Water on the Floatability of Chalcopyrite and Pentlandite for a Selected Cu--Ni Bearing Ore Flotation 65\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMalibongwe S.
