Gem stones such as ruby, sapphire, diamond, etc. are very suitable for gravity separation and screening. Sapphire and ruby ore is a red corundum gemstone, primarily composed of aluminum oxide. As a mineral crystal, sapphire occurs at low concentrations in its ore and requires mineral processing equipment to be separated from gangue and river sand.
The diamond / sapphire / ruby washing plant usually adopts mineral jigs as the main equipment.

Working Principle
Sapphires, ruby, diamond have a specific gravity of 4.0-4.1, significantly different from gangue minerals. Additionally, they exhibit a high degree of individual liberation, making them highly suitable for gravity separation. By utilizingmineral jig, sluices, and other gravity separation equipment, sapphires can be effectively recovered from placer deposits.
This method offers a wide size range (0-50mm), high processing capacity, stable separation results, and high recovery rates.
Processing Flow
01. Washing and Screening
Depending on the characteristics of the gem stone raw ore, trommel screen or trommel scrubber are used for washing and screening the gem ore.
This process separates gem stone particles larger than 3mm from finer particles smaller than 3mm, which are then sent to jigs and sluices respectively.
02. Gravity Separation
Coarse gem stone particles (3-50mm) are separated using a mineral jig, where qualified sapphire crystals are screened.
Fine gem particles below 3mm are sent to small jig or sluices for further enrichment and separation of gem tones.
03. Dewatering
After gravity separation, dewatering screens are used to dehydrate the processed sapphire, preparing them for further treatment.
