driven changed to a lead driven issue. Refer to Figure 9 below. The main reason for this was the lack of adequate lead cleaning capacity, which resulted in a fine balance being drawn between minimizing zinc loss to lead concentrates and recovery of lead from the circuit upstream of the zinc circuit.
The established lead-zinc ore flotation processing scheme is to add zinc sulphate ZnSO4 to the grind to control metal ion activation sphalerite depression. Often metabisulphide or other sulphidation chemicals are added with the zinc sulphate for iron sulphide mineral depression.
The structureof the lead and zinc industry isnot highly competitive. Domestic leadproductionhas 80 of the yearlyyield coming from sevenmines. This percent becomes evenmore meaningful when one considers that a particularcoiqany may anddoes,own more than one of thesemajor mines. Overall, twenty-fivemines supply 95

Cominco is a major lead and zinc producer. At its Trail operation, zinc production is about 250000 tyr while lead production is about 100000 tyr. Zinc is electrowon from H 2 SO 4-ZnSO 4 solutions Pb is electrorefined from impure lead bullion anodes and a H 2 SiF 6-PbSiF 6 electrolyte. In these processes, control of addition agents is accomplished by using continuous electrolyte analyzers ...

Zinc Control Joints are manufactured from high-quality pure zinc and can be used for interior or exterior applications where heightened corrosion resistance is required. The 14 by 716 opening is protected by plastic tape, which is removed after joint compound or plaster has been applied and the finish is
This project provides new scientific insights into the addition of orthophosphate for corrosion control that will enable efficient application of phosphate to control both dissolved and total lead concentrations in water. Laboratory-scale experiments were performed for two scenarios to further investigate the impact of orthophosphate addition on lead release. One scenario was the addition of ...
The OECD systems of control require that all activities concerned with wastes are carried out in an environmentally sound manner. This Monograph has been prepared to provide guidance on what are regarded at the present time to constitute environmentally sound processes for the recovery of copper, lead and zinc from wastes. 3
The PbZn symposium series book is considered the leading international technical forum for the lead and zinc processing industries. The PbZn 2020 volume addresses all aspects of current processing technologies for primary and secondary lead and zinc, as well as emerging technologies.
