TL;DR: In this article, a benzhydroxamic acid (BHA) was used as a collector for the selective separation of fluorite from calcite without using any depressant, and the results from the zeta potential and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated that the BHA easily chemisorbs onto the fluorite as compared to calcite.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel organic compound acetic acid-sodium was synthesized and characterized, and the results demonstrated that AHS exhibited superior depressing power to galena and could be used as selective depressant for flotation separation of molybdenite from galena.

TL;DR: In this paper, a highly selective flotation collector for the separation of calcite and fluorite was developed, and the results indicated that phenolic hydroxyls were the functional groups of Propyl gallate which can selectively adsorb on fluorite and the adsorption amount of PG on the surface of fluorite is larger than on calcite.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of reagent addition order on the flotation behavior of calcite and fluorite, as well as the influence of acid on the floatation behavior of the calcite, were investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the electronic structures of fluorite crystals containing rare earth elements (REEs), such as cerium (Ce) and yttrium (Y), were studied by density functional theory.
