abstract = "There are proven and well established widely accepted techniques for concentration of chromite ores such as spiral concentration, jigs and shaking tables. However, these techniques become inefficient and complex when treating fine and ultrafine size particles (less than 75μm) resulting in this size fraction lost to the tailings.

Beneficiation is a crucial step in the chrome plant process flow, as it involves the separation of chromite from other minerals present in the ore. Various techniques, such as gravity separation, magnetic separation, and flotation, are used to achieve this separation.

South African chromite mines generally recover 10–15% lumpy/coarse ore (15 ≤ typical size range ≤ 150 mm) and 8–12% chip/pebble ore (6 ≤ typical size range ≤ 15 mm), with the <6 mm fraction accounting for the remainder of ore . The beneficiation of lumpy, chips/pebble chromite is achieved by crushing, screening, and dense media ...

Historically, ore with a relatively high Cr/Fe ratio in the basic chromite mineral, exploited from thick chromite seams (∼2 m) to optimize unit mining costs, was …

What is Chromite? Chromite is an oxide mineral composed of chromium, iron, and oxygen (FeCr 2 O 4).It is dark gray to black in color with a metallic to submetallic luster and a high specific gravity. It occurs in basic and ultrabasic igneous rocks and in the metamorphic and sedimentary rocks that are produced when chromite-bearing rocks are altered by heat …

Typical chromite process flowsheet In some cases, chromite concentrates can be produced by wet gravity concentration alone. In other chromite beneficiation processes, magnetic separation by RED is an essential polishing step. Figure 3 shows a typical flowsheet for upgrading chromite where gravity concentration is followed by dry …
