Abstract:The application of inclined-tube thickening in concentrating tailings of a certain limonite mill of Shanxi province .It has been successfully tested on feed 71 .83, particle size range -0 .074mm content . T he overflow solids density is 3 .1,-3 .6, ,the underflow solids density is 43 .1,-46 .3, ,and the con-centrate ratio of overflow to feed is 3 .62 .
