During the flotation of Pb-Zn, Cu-Zn, and Cu-Pb-Zn ores, sphalerite is generally depressed using ZnSO 4, either alone or with cyanide. The depressing action of Zn sulphate occurs in the presence of hydroxyl ions; it is due to the adsorption of Zn hydroxide on the surface of the sphalerite, which prevents the adsorption of xanthate ( …Web
