The BigFLUX Magnetic Matrix Technology

Abstract The Magnetic separation of ultra-fine ore particles has always posed a challenge to the JONES/WHIMS process. Despite many advances in this technology, no effective improvement has been made to its core component: The Magnetic Matrix. The current approach to separate ultra-fine particles teaches that the gap of the matrix and its teeth size must be smaller than usual in order to accommodate the small size of the particles. However, practice proved this approach to be far from ideal. The closing of the gap between grooved plates, whose teeth are smaller, drastically reduces the flow are...
