A flotation experiment was conducted for a low-grade fine-grained cassiterite from Yunnan. The median dosage of reagent was determined by a single-factor test, and then the reagent dosage for rougher flotation process of cassiterite was optimized by response surface methodology as follows: 285 g/t of activator (KT-51), 13 g/t of inhibitor (OL-1C) and 873 g/t of compound collector (YK-Sn+SN-705). A verification test on flotation with the addition of those agents yielded a tin rougher concentrate grading 1.460% Sn at 74.44% recovery, which was close to the results predicted by response surface methodology. In order to further explore the effect, a closed-circuit test was conducted, resulting in the tin concentrate grading 5.45% Sn at 66.70% recovery. It is shown that efficient recovery of low-grade cassiterite resources can be actualized.
