Beneficiation Solutions by Ore Type

One contractor, every ore. From precious metals to industrial minerals, Xinhai builds the right flowsheet around your deposit — then designs, supplies, and commissions it end-to-end.

Precious MetalsGold ore processing plant
Gold & Silver

Gold Ore Processing

Xinhai recovers gold from free-milling, refractory and alluvial ores using the route best matched to your mineralogy and grade — gravity, flotation, CIP, CIL or heap leach, with the eco-friendly CNLITE agent available as a cyanide alternative.

1Crush›2Grind›3Gravity / Flotation›4Leach (CIP/CIL)›5Desorption & Smelting
  • CIP and CIL gold rooms with desorption-electrolysis
  • Centrifugal and gravity recovery of coarse free gold
  • CNLITE low-toxicity leaching reagent (cyanide replacement)

Base MetalsCopper concentration plant
Copper · Lead · Zinc

Copper & Lead-Zinc Flotation

Sulphide base-metal ores are upgraded by selective and bulk flotation into clean, high-grade saleable concentrates. Xinhai tunes the reagent regime and cell configuration to your ore so you maximise both recovery and concentrate grade.

1Crush›2Grind›3Conditioning›4Differential Flotation›5Thickening & Filtration
  • Differential flotation for polymetallic Pb-Zn-Cu ores
  • XCF/KYF and SF cells matched to circuit duty
  • Concentrate thickening, filtration and tailings management

FerrousIron ore beneficiation plant
Iron & Manganese

Iron & Manganese Beneficiation

Magnetite, hematite and manganese ores are upgraded through magnetic separation, jigging, gravity and reverse flotation. Xinhai combines these into a single circuit that lifts iron grade while keeping operating cost and water use under control.

1Crush›2Grind›3Magnetic Separation›4Gravity / Flotation›5Dewatering
  • Low- and high-intensity magnetic separation
  • Jigging and gravity for coarse liberated ore
  • Reverse flotation to reduce silica in concentrate

Energy MineralsLithium spodumene processing plant
Lithium · Spodumene

Lithium & Spodumene Processing

Hard-rock lithium ore is upgraded to battery-supply-chain concentrate through dense-media separation, flotation and magnetic purification. Xinhai has delivered million-tonne spodumene lines, including a two-million-TPA plant in Zimbabwe.

1Crush›2Dense-Media Separation›3Grind›4Flotation›5Magnetic Purification
  • Heavy-media pre-concentration of spodumene
  • Flotation to lift Li₂O grade to concentrate spec
  • Magnetic separation to control iron contamination

Industrial MineralsFluorite flotation plant
Fluorite · Barite

Fluorite & Barite Flotation

Selective flotation delivers acid-grade fluorspar (≥97% CaF₂) and high-purity barite from complex ores. Xinhai's staged grinding and multi-cleaning circuits hold grade while keeping silica and calcite down.

1Crush›2Stage Grind›3Rougher Flotation›4Multi-Cleaning›5Drying
  • Acid-grade fluorspar concentrate production
  • Stage grinding to protect fluorite crystals
  • Depressant control for silica and calcite

Non-MetallicSilica sand and quartz processing plant
Quartz · Silica Sand

Quartz & Silica Sand Purification

Scrubbing, classifying, magnetic separation and flotation remove iron and impurities to produce glass-, foundry- and high-purity grade silica. Xinhai has built quartz lines up to 900,000 TPA.

1Scrub & Wash›2Classify›3Magnetic Separation›4Flotation›5Dewater & Dry
  • Attrition scrubbing to strip surface iron coatings
  • High-intensity magnetic separation for impurity removal
  • Flotation for high-purity and ultra-low-iron grades
