There are two kinds of copper-nickel sulfide mixed flotation: one is a mixed flotation-direct separation process, the other is a mixed flotation-smelting-high nickel separation process. 1.Mixed ...
Read MoreThe NiS button can be analyzed directly by LA inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). The main disadvantage of NiS-FA is the relatively large mass of reagents used, which increase the reagent blanks of the PGEs, especially from the used Ni powder. Carbonyl nickel or purified nickel is preferred for fusion.

Read MoreNickel production was stable at 7118t, but maintenance saw spodumene concentrate output from the Greenbushes mine — where IGO owns 24.99% — fall 14% to 358,000t. That meant costs rose 36% from $262/t to $357/t, with IGO already announcing a drop in output from 1.4-1.5Mtpa to 1.3-1.4Mtpa for FY24.

Read MoreNi and Ni-Cu sulphide ores. Nickel-copper sulphide ores can differ significantly in the mineralogy of both the sulphide and the gangue minerals. Pentlandite is the major source of nickel, and often carries with it cobalt or precious group elements in economic concentration. Vast pentlandite deposits are processed in Canada, Australia, …
Read MoreThe sulphidation of a nickeliferous lateritic ore was studied at temperatures between 450 and 1100 °C and for sulphur additions of 25–1000 kg of sulphur per tonne of ore. The experiments demonstrated that the nickel could be selectively sulphidized to form a nickel–iron sulphide. It was found that both the grade and the sulphidation degree ...
Read MoreCollecting gold and PGE by nickel sulphide fire assay (NiS-FA) into a NiS button was first introduced as a pre-concentration step in the spectrophotometric determination of Os [4]. In the 1970s NiS-FA gained popularity as a pre-concentration method for neutron activation analysis [5], [6], [7], and by 1987, the first report on the ...

Read MoreThe oxidation reaction for pentlandite [(Ni,Fe)9S8] is given below. A similar reaction can be written for other nickel and cobalt sulphides. 4(Ni,Fe)9S8 + 45/2O2 + 18H2SO4 18NiSO4 + 9Fe2O3 + 18H2O + 32S°. Similarly, the copper sulphide species present in the concentrate are also oxidized in the autoclave.

Read MoreCopper Solvent Extraction. The separation of copper from nickel is based on the fact that there is an appreciable difference in the pH at which the two metals are extracted. Copper can be extracted, with very small amounts of nickel, at pH 6.0 to 6.5, while nickel is extracted from the copper raffinate at pH 8.0 to 8.2.
Read MoreNickel Sulphide is one of the important classes of metal sulphides. Nickel sulphide has many phases, some phases are nickel rich and some phases are sulphur rich such as α-NiS, β-NiS, Ni 17 S 6, Ni 3 S 4, NiS 2, Ni 3 S 2, etc. . Out of these phases only two are the most stable phases; one is rhombohedral β-NiS, and hexagonal α-NiS .
