Synergistic activation of smithsonite with copper-ammonium species for enhancing surface reactivity and xanthate adsorption

Copper ions (Cu2+) are usually added to activate the sulfidized surface of zinc oxide minerals to enhance xanthate attachment using sulfidization xanthate flotation technology. The adsorption of Cu2+ and xanthate on the sulfidized surface was investigated in various systems, and its effect on the su...
