ALS Minerals
Heavy Liquid Separation

ALS Metallurgy operates a Heavy Liquid Laboratory capable of conducting the full range of mineral separations right up to SG 4.4.
• TBE
• Di-iodo-methane
• Clerici’s solution (ThaliumMalonateFormate)
Separations can be performed at a single density resulting in a pair of sink-float products, or at a range of density intervals with a minimum density increments as low as 0.1.
Separations can be conducted in the size range of 25 mm to 500 μm in static tests. A centrifuge is also available for fine particle separation down to ~45 μm.
