Geometallurgy of cobalt ores: A review

This data contains the main geometallurgical properties of cobalt ores, with a particular focus on ore mineralogy which exerts a significant control over ore processing behaviour and cobalt extraction, such as the oxidation state, i.e. oxide or sulphides which drives the selection of the processing route (leaching vs flotation), and the associated gangue mineralogy, which can affect acid consumption during leaching or flotation performance.

The data will be of value to all those interested in the main geometallurgical properties of cobalt ores and the overall process of cobalt extraction and refining.
