processing of zinc ores

: zinc processing - Ores | Britannica
zinc processing - zinc processing - Ores: Zinc ores are widely distributed throughout the world, although more than 40 percent of the world’s output originates in North America and Australia. The common zinc-containing minerals are the zinc sulfide known as zinc blende or sphalerite (ZnS), a ferrous form of zinc blende known as marmatite [(ZnFe)S], and a zinc carbonate

2022-1-17 · The principal ore of zinc used for its extraction is Zinc blend ( Z n S). As Zinc blend is a sulphide ore, the process used for its concentration is the Froth Floatation Method. The concentrated ore is then roasted in excess air at 1200 K to obtain zinc oxide ( Z n O). It is then reduced to Z n by coke at a temperature of 1673 K.
