Abstract

The paper presents the results of the characterisation and beneficiation studies carried out on a low grade barite sample with a view to developing technology for upgrading it to marketable product. Considering propert-ies of the barite and the associated gangues, basically two beneficiation routes i.e.well as fine size ranges gave concentrate with acceptable grade but barite recov-ery was low. Adoption of flotation process resulted in recovery over 88% with specific gravity of 4.25. The results of the bench scale studies were validated through large ,.scale trials. Based on the studies a process flow-sheet was developed for the processing of barite waste dump sample.
