Abstract
The polymetallic sulphide ore deposits of Delhi-Aravalli orogenic belt exhibit occurrence of freibergite (a mineral of fahlore group) as a m ajor source for recovery of silver as an important byproduct. EPMA dat a on the chemistry of freibergite is presented. In order to obtain opt imal recovery of Ag from the ores of these deposits, selective flotati on of freibergite is suggested.
