ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method permitting the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic powders which are used for the preparation of heavy media for the float-sink dressing of minerals, to be tested. To this end, the invention provides for the ferromagnetic powder to be magnetized in a magnetic steady field at a field strength within the range 600 to 1000 amperes per cm and the magnetized ferromagnetic powder to be demagnetized in a cyclicly decreasing magnetic alternating field at a field strength within the range 1000 to 1500 amperes per cm. Next, the ferromagnetic powder so pretreated is heaped up, in the center portion of a circular plate made from dielectric material and the circular plate is placed on an iron core-provided coil. An alternating current voltage of 180 to 260 volts is applied to the coil, thereby effecting the occurrence of alternating fields of 180 to 220 amperes per cm in the center portion of the circular plate. The ferromagnetic powder heaped up is observed for the figure it is forming under the influence of the alternating fields. The formation of a closed figure around the center portion of the plate indicates unlimited qualification of the ferromagnetic powder for use in a heavy medium suspension.
