Abstract: Chinese researchers who endeavor in mineral processing take rational exploitation, comprehensive utilization and mining circulation way of mineral resources as the ultimate goal all along in 2010.A great deal of research work has been carried out in such aspects as mineral processing technology, beneficiation reagent, dressing equipment, microorganism technology used in mineral processing and tailings disposal.Outstanding advances have been achieved especially in improving the efficiency of crushing-grinding process, optimizing the mineral processing technology, beneficiation process of refractory ores, preparation and application of new-typed reagents and comprehensive utilization of tailings.The existing problem is lacking of deeply research on adsorption mechanism of floatation reagent and new type dressing equipment.
