Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0203855A2] This invention is a method for agglomerating mineral ore concentrate comprising the commingling of mineral ore concentrate with a binding amount of a water soluble, high molecular weight polymer. The selected polymer is applied to the mineral ore concentrate either (1) dispersed in a water-in-oil emulsion or (2) as a dry powder. The most preferred polymers are water soluble poly(acrylamide) based polymers.
