The main method for the beneficiation of galena is flotation. Due to the natural floatability of galena, high-quality galena concentrate can be produced through flotation with satisfactory beneficiation indicators.
Using the Bureau's new process, galena concentrates are leached directly under oxidative conditions in waste fluosilicic acid at tem-peratures less than 120°C. This solubilizes the lead and produces a residue containing elemental sulfur and other metal values. Pure lead metal (99.99 pct) is recovered from the leach solution by electrowinning ...

Mineral Processing. Swapan Kumar Haldar, in Mineral Exploration (Second Edition), 2018. 13.2.4.3 In-Stream Analyzer and Process Control. Mineral beneficiation, particularly base and noble metals, is sensitive to optimum use of reagents, recovery of metals, and clean concentrate.High fluctuation of feed grade at flotation cells yields loss of metals to tailing.
Lead sulfide (PbS) is the main component of galena. The traditional method used to prepare metal lead from galena is disadvantaged by high energy consumption and severe pollution. In this paper, an eco-friendly yet simple process is proposed to prepare high-purity metal lead directly from lead sulfide.

Roasting: In this process the sulfide ores are heated to a high temperature in presence of air. Smelting: In this process heat is applied to the ore in order to extract the base metals like silver (Ag), iron (Fe), copper (Cu) etc. Often before roasting, the ore (generally sulfide ores) is partially purified using another important
