Froth flotation process mainly includes grinding, pulp conditioning and dosing, froth flotation separation and dewatering of foam products and tailings products after flotation. Before the froth flotation operation started, the ore needs to be ground to optional particle size range. Generally it is ground to less than 0.1 mm.

The flotation target was a higher nickel recovery from a concentration grade of 4% nickel and 35% iron. Sulphide ore is mainly associated with the following minerals pyrrhotite, pentlandite, chalcopyrite and pyrite. Pentlandite is the most abundant sulphide mineral and is the main nickel mineral in almost all nickel sulphide deposits [4, 5, 6].
