Preserving Flake Size in an African Flake Graphite Ore ... MDPI
As the high value and the scarcity of largeflake graphite ore resources, it is in the best interest to maximize the amount of large flakes and minimize any processing that will reduce flake sizes. In the study, the mineralogy of an African graphite ore was estimated using Xray diffraction (XRD), Xray fluorescence (XRF), and optical microscope analyses. The results indicated that it was a ...
