The method of enriching a heterogeneous ore, particularly a phosphates ore, consists in breaking up the ore followed by a separation of the particles rich in phosphates and the poor particles of the broken up ore. The separation can be carried out by one or more of the methods including sieving, attrition, passing through a hydro-cyclone separator, etc. The breaking up stage comprises a stage of making the ore fragile which consists in passing the one between two cylindrical wheels (1, 2) having parallel axes of a press in order to be subjected to an intense compression at that place. A stage of breaking down the product leaving the press can be carried out by one or more methods including roller, percussion or hammer crushing, passage into agitated containers, washing trommel or screw, etc. The press for implementing the enrichment method comprises two cylindrical wheels (1 and 2) whose horizontal axes are parallel with each other. The axis of one of the wheels (1) is fixed and the other wheel (2) is provided with means allowing the application of the force F on the product between the wheels (1 and 2), A feed system is provided above the zone which separates the two wheels. The feed system comprises a hopper (6) and means (7) of adjusting the width of the outlet opening of the said hopper (6). <IMAGE> |
