Selective flocculation of iron ores is accomplished through the employment of partially carboxylated polyacrylamides as the selective flocculant. The partially carboxylated polyacrylamides employed in the selective flocculation contain from about 20-65% carboxyl groups and are of a molecular weight in excess of one million. The selective flocculation process performs a separation of iron ores predominantly containing semitaconite, oxidized taconite and hematitic-goethitic jaspers from their associated siliceous gangue. |
