The size fraction of <300 μm in this project was only examined due to the ore supplier preference. This size fraction corresponds to a P80 of about 140 μm. The chemical assays of the laterite samples are provided in Table 2. The nickel head grade of ores L, I and S (at <300 μm size fraction) was found to be 1.2%, 1.1%, and 3.0%, respectively.
The size-wise assay of the sample reveals that −25 μm fractions are richer in alumina (refer to Fig. 1 (c)&(d)). However, the distribution of iron content is uniform throughout all sizes. One of the feasible physical routes is the separation of −25 μm size particles using hydrocyclone classifier.

The generation of tailing in the Indian chromite beneficiation plant is about 50% of the total feed. The tailing from chromite beneficiation plant, Sukinda, India, was analysed 17.02% of Cr 2 O 3, with Cr:Fe ratio of 0.49. Particle size of the tailing is finer in distribution with 50% (by weight) of the tailing is < 190 μm.

In this study, Central Appalachian coal-derived fly ashes from two power plants were beneficiated in a pilot-scale facility in order to produce a product with a relatively consistent concentration of rare earth elements (REE). The <200-mesh final fly ash product was produced by removing the carbon- and Fe-rich particles prior to screening at 200 mesh (75 µm). The Plant …
