The platinum-group minerals (PGM) are a diverse group of minerals that concentrate the
platinum-group elements (PGE; Os, Ir, Ru, Rh, Pt, and Pd). At the time of writing, the …

Porphyry copper and mixed copper-gold sulfide deposits contain varying amounts of
precious (gold and silver) and platinum group metals (PGMs). Currently, milling and froth …

Abstract The Bushveld Complex in South Africa hosts the world's largest resources of
platinum-group elements (PGEs), which are mainly mined from three ore bodies, namely the …

According to recent estimates, Rustenburg Layered Suite (RLS) of the Bushveld Complex of
the Republic of South Africa (Fig. 1) contains 75% and 50% of the World's Pt and Pd …

The UG-2 chromitite of the Bushveld Complex in South Africa contains the world's largest
resources of platinum group elements (PGEs). However, only limited work has been …

Interaction of base metal sulfides (pyrrhotite, pentlandite, and chalcopyrite) with aqueous
fluids in the UG2 chromitite layer and the Merensky reef in the western Bushveld Complex …

This paper is based on 465 new analyses of Ni, Cu, S and PGE from the 19 chromitite
horizons between the LG-1 and UMG-2 from 6 sectors around the Bushveld Complex, along …

The abundances of the platinum-group elements (PGE), and their relative proportions, are
summarized for all the mines exploiting the Merensky Reef on both western and eastern …

The non-stoichiometric sulfide mineral pyrrhotite (Fe (1− x) S), common to many nickel ore
deposits, occurs in different crystallographic forms and compositions. A series of pyrrhotite …

During the recovery of the valuable platinum group minerals and base metal sulphides in
the Merensky Reef ore by flotation, a certain amount of naturally floatable gangue (NFG) is …
