IJMMME - Flotation of lithium ores to obtain high-grade ...
Lepidolite is the most abundant lithium ore and occurs in both facies with different grain sizes. In the first case, it occurs mainly as medium to coarse-grained (> 500 µm), whereas in the aplitic unit it frequently forms fine-grained (250-60 µm) to very fine-grained (≤ 60 µm) aggregates.
