L-2449B ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The present invention relates to an improved process for beneficiating an ore containing sulfide materials with selective rejection of pyrite, pyrrhotite and other minerals and gangue. In particular, the process is useful for beneficiating ores and recovering metals such as copper, lead, zinc, etc., from said ores. In one embodiment the process comprises the steps of: (A) forming a slurry of at least one crushed mineral-containing ore, water and at least one collector which is an acid, or an anhydride, ester, ammonium salt or metal salt of the acid that is repre- sented by the formula (I) Image or (II) Image wherein each R1 and R2 is independently a hydrocar- byl or hydrocarbyloxy or hydrocarbylthio group; each X1 and X2 is independently sulfur or oxygen; R3 is a divalent hydrocarbyl group, each R4 and R5 is independently a hydrogen or hydrocarbyl group; a is 0 or 1; b is 0 or 1; c is 1 or 2; Q is a divalent, trivalent or tetravalent hydrocarbyl group or -C(X3)NR5Q'; X3 is sulfur or oxygen; Q' is a divalent, trivalent or tetravalent hydrocarbyl group provided Q' is not divalent in Formula II; Z is -S(O)OH, or -S(O)2OH. (B) subjecting the slurry from step (A) to froth flotation to produce a froth; and (C) recovering a mineral from the froth.
