Fluid Inclusion Effect in the Flotation of Sulfide Minerals gives a detailed introduction to how fluid inclusions affect the flotation of sulfide minerals. The book introduces the various fluids found in geology, detailing the properties of fluid inclusions and how to identify and analyze their composition. It gives the common chemical compositions of fluid inclusions, investigates the release of fluid inclusions in sulfide materials and some gangues, and presents the concentrations and solution chemistry of the released ions. Finally, the book considers the absorption mechanism and the interaction of some typical metal ions from fluid inclusions on the surface of sulfide minerals.

• Analyzes the properties of a surface when in contact with a fluid inclusion and how the fluid released affects mineral processing and extraction
• Determines the heavy metals released from fluid inclusions
• Offers a comprehensive picture on how fluid inclusions affect flotation from both macro and microscopic viewpoints
• Presents the absorption mechanism and interactions of some typical metal ions from fluid inclusions on the surface of sulfide minerals
