Abstract

Hindustan Zinc limited operates a Pb-Zn beneficiation plant having a capacity of around 3000 tpd at Rajpura Dariba mine. The beneficiation circuit consists of 3 parallel streams each of 800 tpd capacity and produces lead and zinc concentrates. The ore from this mine is reported to be complex in nature. The sulphides of lead-zinc from this deposit are hosted by calc-silicate (CS) and graphite mica schist (GSM) rock types. The extreme variability of the physicochemical properties of the ore and wide variations in the grade of mill feed created
metallurgical problems due to which the desired products could not be obtained on sustained basis.
