Concentration by jigging process is different from other types of gravity concentration processes such as heavy media separation, where the separation is done directly. Stratification of bed particles in the jigging concentration process is achieved gradually, and the separation into products is realized after a certain time.

In cationic flotation of quartz, the addition of a very small quantity of goethite slimes affects the separation. Flotation of the quartz is almost completely inhibited in the presence of only 0.5 percent slime. However, more than 5 percent goethite slime can be tolerated in the anionic flotation of coarse goethite particles. Discussion

Gravity separation units exploit the difference between the specific gravities of the iron oxides and gangues while the success of magnetic separation depends on the variation in the magnetic susceptibility of the constituent minerals. ...
