Which of the following ore is concentrated using group 11 cyanide salt?

Options

  1. AMalachite
  2. BCalamine
  3. CSiderite
  4. DSphalerite

Correct answer

D. Sphalerite

Step-by-step solution

Sphalerite ore: ZnSZnS

Calamine ore: ZnCO3{ZnCO}_{3}

Siderite ore: FeCO3{FeCO}_{3}

Malachite ore: Cu(OH)2⋅CuCO3Cu{\left(OH\right)}_{2} \cdot {CuCO}_{3}
It is possible to separate two sulphide ores by adjusting proportion of oil to water or by using 'depressants'. In case of an ore containing ZnSZnS and PbS,PbS, the depressant used is NaCN.NaCN .
