Use of Pb<sup>2+</sup> as a Selective Activator in Selective Flotation Separation of Specularite, Aegirine, and Chlorite: A DFT Study

Despite being one of the main sources of iron, specularite is often associated with gangue minerals such as aegirine and chlorite. Flotation separation is challenging in the mineral processing industry because of the similar surface properties of specularite, aegirine, and chlorite. This study inves...
