What constitutes mineral beneficiation? Ore is an aggregate of minerals and contains valuable and gangue minerals .The mineral beneficiation involves separations of gangue minerals from ore and is done in the following two stages: 1. Liberation of valuable mineral by size reduction technologies.

In the mining industry or extractive metallurgy, beneficiation is any process that improves (benefits) the economic value of the ore by removing the gangue minerals, which results in a higher grade product (ore concentrate) and a waste stream ().There are many different types of beneficiation, with each step furthering the concentration of the original ore.

a. At least 50 percent of the materials entering the operations are ores, minerals, or beneficiated ores or minerals; b.
