3. Sampling [30 pts]
3.1 A copper ore sample, with a weight of 1.8 kg, contains 3% Cu as CuFeS2 (chalcopyrite) with an assay accuracy of ±0.4% Cu at the 95% confidence level. The mean densities of the chalcopxyrite and gangue minerals are 4.25 and 2.65 g/cm3, respectively. Consider that this ore has a 0of 0.015 m, and that chalcopyrite is essentially liberated from quartz gangue at a particle size of 170 μm. To what particle size must the ore be crushed so that accuracy in the assay of the sample weight will be ±0.1% Cu rather than ±0.4% at 95% confidence? If it is desired to take a sample from the pulp stream after grinding the ore to its liberation size for recovery of chalcopyrite by flotation, what is the minimum sample weight to be taken in order to give an accuracy of ±0.05% at 95% confidence? Assume that classification has given fairly close sizing. Show your calculations.
Hint:
Make use of Gy’s Formula
and the sampling mineralogy constant
Where:
M = Minimum weight of sample [g]
s = Statistical error in sampling
f = Shape factor
g = Particle distribution factor
m = Mineralogical factor
a = Fraction average mineral content of the mineral being sampled
r = Mean density of valuable [g/cm3]
t = Mean density of gangue [g/cm3]
l = Liberation factor
d = Dimension of largest particle in material to be sampled [cm]
3.2. Using the same data in Problem 1, calculate the minimum weight to be taken in order to give an accuracy of ± 0.05% at 95% confidence if the particle size is 300 μm? Show your calculations. How does it compare to the previous result? Discuss your results and conclusions.
So as the accuracy( the number of accuracy of ± N% decrease) and size increase, the sample weight increase.
3.3. List the six factors that affect the amount of sample to be taken and specify their effects on the amount of sample to be taken.
Minimum weight of sample positive correlation with Error(when error increase, the S value decrease) Shape factor, Mineralogical factor, Liberation factor , Mean density of valuable ,Mean density of gangue
4. Particle Size Distributions [25 pts]
Sieve analysis is a common method of determining rough-cut particle size distributions. A ground ore sample is sifted through a stack of screens of decreasing aperture sizes. This is usually done with some vibration to get all the material through to where it belongs. The weight of solids retained on each screen is determined and weight fractions are then computed. The screens are stacked with the smallest aperture screen on the bottom and the largest aperture screen on the top. The size range of material captured on any one screen is designated by two numbers:
i) Minus (-) the aperture size of the screen above
ii) Plus (+) the aperture size of the screen where the material is retained.
Thus, a designation of “-6.80 mm to +4.75 mm,” indicates that the ‘effective’ diameters of the retained particles are in the range of 6.80 mm to 4.75 mm, i.e., 6.80 > D > 4.75 mm.
Use the raw sieve analysis data, measured for a ground ore sample, listed in the table below.
There are several possible ways to represent the data, many of which distort the appearance of the data in some way. Make graphical representations of the data as requested and answer questions 4.1 – 4.5. Also, briefly discuss the merits and shortcomings of each with respect to representation of the different size regions (i.e., fine, and coarse regions of the size distribution). For example, does each way of plotting the data either over-emphasize or under-emphasize a particular feature of the data? Note that the actual screen aperture size for an individual screen is the ‘lower size limit’, i.e., the (+) value in the table below. The (-) number is the aperture size for the screen above it. You may want to construct a data and calculations table (in Excel or other software) to help you answer the questions and construct the plots.
4.1 Fraction (wt.%) retained vs. diameter (aperture lower size limit), linear-linear scale. Use a line plot. Are the points equally spaced on the horizontal axis?
4.2 Fraction (wt.%) retained vs. diameter (aperture lower size limit), linear-log scale. Use a line plot. Are the points equally spaced on the horizontal axis?
4.3 Cumulative fraction (wt.%) retained vs. aperture lower size limit, linear-log scale. Use a line plot.
4.4 Cumulative fraction (wt.%) passing vs. aperture upper size limit, linear-log scale. Use a line plot.
4.5 Cumulative fraction (wt.%) passing vs. aperture upper size limit, log-log scale. Use line plot. This is known as a Gates-Gaudin-Schuhmann plot and is based on the Gaudin-Schuhmann model for the particle size distribution
5. Gates-Gaudin-Schuhmann Model vs Rosin Rammler Model [20 pts]
Use data in Problem 3. Make a Rosin Rammler Plot
Determine if the Rosin-Rammler model is applicable to this data and if it is, determine the two fitting parameters.
Which model fits the dataset better? [hint: you can linearize the equations, plot the data using both models, and compare the regression fitness (R2)]
