Abstract：
Recent advancements in the applications of heavy minerals by modern science, engineering, technological and metallurgical industries especially in the demand by nuclear and power industries have significantly increased over the decades. This is the reason for the criticality and commerciality of products of heavy minerals and also necessitated their high demand by industries. The recovery of heavy minerals, such as: Zr and Ti associated minerals from their deposits is dependent on extractive metallurgy of transition and refractory metals from complex minerals. Based on the effectiveness and efficiency of mineral concentration as well as metal extraction, several challenges have been encountered in their recovery process, especially in their separation from associated mineral impurities or gangue. This review is however focused on investigating magnetic and electrostatic physical processing techniques and their applications in the beneficiation and recovery of heavy minerals. This will therefore, serve as a tool in reducing process steps and extraction complexity involved in downstream measures of dissolution and hydrometallurgical processes of the minerals.
摘要：
现代科学在重矿物应用方面的最新进展，工程,几十年来，技术和冶金工业特别是核能和电力工业的需求显着增加。这是重矿物产品的关键性和商业化的原因，也需要工业对其的高需求。重质矿物的回收,例如：来自其矿床的Zr和Ti伴生矿物依赖于来自复杂矿物的过渡金属和难熔金属的提取冶金。根据矿物浓缩和金属提取的有效性和效率，在他们的恢复过程中遇到了一些挑战，特别是在它们与相关的矿物杂质或脉石的分离中。然而，这篇综述的重点是研究磁性和静电物理处理技术及其在重矿物选矿和回收中的应用。因此，这将是,作为减少工艺步骤和提取复杂性的工具，涉及到溶解和湿法冶金过程的下游措施的矿物。
