Mineral processing, art of treating crude ores and mineral products in order to separate the valuable minerals from the waste rock, or gangue. It is the first process that most ores undergo after mining in order to provide a more concentrated material for the procedures of extractive metallurgy.

What subjects are needed for mining engineering?
Mining engineering programs often include laboratory and fieldwork experience as well.
Some subjects involved in mining engineering include:
geology.
physics.
thermodynamics.
mathematics.
mine safety.
chemistry.
fluid mechanics.
mining operation.
What are the four main types of mineral processing?
Mineral processing can involve four general types of unit operation: comminution – particle size reduction; sizing – separation of particle sizes by screening or classification; concentration by taking advantage of physical and surface chemical properties; and dewatering – solid/liquid separation.
What is a mineral processing plant?
Mineral Processing includes recovery operations at a mine site and the associated processing plant.
The processing operations involve the extraction of metal ores and minerals from the mined rock.
Major applications involving mixers and agitators are found in the processing plant.
