Mining Chemicals and Their Applications

At MTC Chemical, we offer a wide range of chemical products tailored for the mining industry. These chemicals are critical in various mining processes such as metal extraction, ore processing, flotation, and beneficiation. The use of these chemicals ensures the efficiency of mining operations and the purity of the extracted metal. Below, you will find detailed information about our mining chemicals and their applications.

Activated Carbon

Activated carbon is commonly used in mining for the adsorption process of precious metals such as gold and silver. This chemical effectively absorbs gold and silver ions from solutions, aiding in the recovery of these metals. Activated carbon is also widely used in water purification and gas purification processes.

Copper Sulfate

Copper sulfate is widely used as a flotation reagent in the mining industry. It is particularly effective in the separation of zinc, lead, and other sulfide minerals. Copper sulfate is also used in agriculture and water treatment processes.

Iron Sulfate

Iron sulfate is used in iron ore processing and flotation processes. This chemical plays a crucial role in the separation and purification of ores. Additionally, iron sulfate is used in wastewater treatment and the textile industry.

Lead Nitrate

Lead nitrate is an oxidizing agent used in gold and silver mining. This chemical improves the processing of ore and enhances the recovery of precious metals. Lead nitrate is also used in the production of explosives and pyrotechnic applications.

Potassium Chlorate

Potassium chlorate is a powerful oxidizing agent used as a flotation reagent in mining. This chemical is used to improve the separation of ores and increase flotation efficiency. Potassium chlorate is also a significant component in the production of explosives and the agricultural sector.

Sodium Chlorate

Sodium chlorate is another oxidizing agent used in mining. This chemical is used to oxidize ores, making metal recovery easier. Sodium chlorate is also used as a bleaching agent in the textile and paper industries.

Sodium Metabisulfite

Sodium metabisulfite is widely used in gold mining. This chemical acts as a reducing agent during the recovery of gold and silver from solutions. Additionally, sodium metabisulfite is used in water treatment, food preservation, and the chemical industry.

Sodium Cyanide

Sodium cyanide is one of the most commonly used leaching agents in gold and silver mining. This chemical dissolves precious metals from ores, facilitating the efficient recovery of gold and silver. Sodium cyanide is also used in electroplating processes.

Sodium Sulfite

Sodium sulfite is used as a flotation reagent in mining. This chemical is used to improve the separation of ores and increase flotation efficiency. Sodium sulfite is also widely used as a bleaching agent in the paper and textile industries.

Sodium Sulfide (Zırnık)

Sodium sulfide is a chemical commonly used in flotation processes in mining. This chemical plays an important role in the separation of sulfide ores and the metal recovery processes. Sodium sulfide is also used in the chemical industry and leather processing.

Pine Turpentine

Pine turpentine is a natural reagent used as a flotation agent in mining. This chemical is particularly used in the flotation of sulfide minerals and aids in the separation of ores. Pine turpentine is also widely used in the production of paints and varnishes.

Zinc Oxide White Seal

Zinc oxide white seal is a filler and flotation reagent used in mining. This chemical is particularly used in the flotation of sulfide minerals and aids in the separation of ores. Zinc oxide is also widely used in the rubber, ceramic, and paint industries.

Zinc Sulfate

Zinc sulfate is a flotation reagent used in mining. This chemical plays an important role in the separation of zinc and other sulfide minerals. Zinc sulfate is also used in agriculture and water treatment processes.
