abstract
This article highlights the magnetic flocculation of mineral fines in aqueous suspensions, including ferromagnetic and weakly magnetic minerals. The magnetic attraction between magnetic mineral particles in an external magnetic field, the stability of magnetic mineral fines in aqueous suspensions, kinetics of magnetic flocculation, and the main parameters of magnetic flocculation are discussed and summarized. Some of the experimental results are presented and the applications of magnetic flocculation to fine mineral beneficiation are briefly described.
