Naturally occurring graphite is classified into three forms: (i) flake graphite, (ii) vein graphite and (iii) amorphous graphite 8. Flake graphite is found in regionally metamorphosed sedimentary rocks and has a distinctly flaky morphology, and is typically found as flat and plate-like masses 9. They are very common in many parts of the world.

A low grade graphite ore from eastern India was beneficiated by flotation to improve its quality. The ore was composed of 87.80% ash and 8.59% fixed carbon. Primary coarse wet grinding ( d: 186 μm) followed by rougher flotation in Denver flotation cell using diesel as collector and pine oil as frother yielded a rougher concentrate.
