Abstract :In this study, the possibility of concentration of calcined magnesite ore by multi gravity separator was investigated. The best results were obtained in the concentration of magnesite which was calcined at 8000C, by multi gravity separator. The optimum operation parameters determined for the concentration of calcined magnesite ore were as follows; a washwater flow rate of 3 lt/min., shake amplitude of 15 mm, shake frequency of 4.8 cps, tilt angle of 40 and drum speed of 200 rpm. The results of concentration experiments showed that, the saleable concentration containing 78.14% MgO was obtained with 66.58% recovery.Keywords : Magnesite, multi gravity separator
