OBS

The distinction between orthocumulates, mesocumulates, and adcumulates is reflected directly in the ore grade and also partly determines whether the ore must be beneficiated prior to smelting; it is therefore of great economic significance.

Key term(s)

Domaine(s)

OBS

La distinction entre orthocumulat, mésocumulat et adcumulat se traduit directement dans la teneur du minerai et détermine en partie si le minerai doit être enrichi avant l'étape de fusion; elle est donc de grande importance économique.
