Improved recovery and/or selectivity in flotation testing
Cleaner, faster-draining froth for improved concentrate quality
Drop-in integration potential without process overhauls
Flotation optimization is becoming more critical as modern ores are harder to float. Declining grades, shifting impurity profiles, and conventional reagent limits make performance gains difficult without redesigning circuits. Locus Mining develops biosurfactant-based flotation reagents to improve recovery and selectivity while controlling froth characteristics and water dynamics—integrating into existing reagent schemes.
Flotation circuits must balance recovery and selectivity while managing froth stability and water chemistry. Pushing recovery often introduces impurities, while tightening selectivity can reduce yield. Conventional reagents struggle to maintain consistent performance as ore conditions shift.
Locus Mining’s proprietary biosurfactant-based reagents improve flotation by controlling how particles attach, separate, and move within the froth. This enables more consistent recovery and selectivity across changing ore conditions.
