ABSTRACT

We present new flotation agents, KSK-n, for the benefication of polymetallic sulfide
ores in this work. The KSK-n reagents belong to xanthates, but contain a heterocycle in
their structure and due to that exhibit both, the collector and frother properties.

Keywords: technology, flotation reagent, mineral, flotation, concentrate.
