Abstract

The article presents experimental research of the influence exerted by electrochemical polarization on electrode potential, phase composition of surface formations, adsorption of collector and floatability of basic sulfides of gold-bearing ore. It is shown that phase composition of surface formations under different polarization modes affects adsorption of collectors and floatability of minerals.
