ABSTRACT: Sample preparation is one of the most important stages prior to application of any particular
concentration method in mineral processing. The acquisition of representative samples from a mineral deposit plays a crucial role and affects all subsequent preparation and concentration tests. The test samples used in this study were supplied from the Ed-Holding's Emet Colemanite Mine İn Türkiye. Prior to flotation testing, some preliminary work was carried out on the raw colemanite ore samples. This work studies the material characterization tests to find out what the samples actually contained as principal and gangue minerals and in which particular particle size range. Sample preparation was followed by identification techniques such as Xray diffraction analysis, complete chemical analysis, particle size distribution tests and solubility tests.
