ABSTRACT: The copper grade of one copper oxide ore from Dongchuan, Yunnan province is 1.14%,
and oxidation rate and binding rate of which reach up to 77.81% and 20.79% respectively. Content of
calcium-magnesium minerals are high and easily generate secondary sludge which makes flotation envi-
ronment worse ...
