Due to low zinc content, run-of-mine zinc-bearing ores must be concentrated before smelting and refining. Beneficiation, which usually occurs at the mine, consists of crushing, grinding, and flotation to produce concentrates of 50 to 60 percent zinc. Lead ore also requires processing to remove rock and mineral impurities to achieve a suitable ...
