Abstract

Using corrections applied to the XRE analysis of copper ore flotation materials, two methods of determining the ratio of solid to liquid content in slurries are described. Both are based on the use of coherently scattered radiation. In the first method the intensity of Cu, Pb and Fe is normalized using a coefficient defined as a ratio of scattered radiation from the sample and pure diluent. In the second, the regression equations are applied. Satisfactory results have been obtained for solid contents ranging from 10 to 40%.
