Rare Earth Magnetic Separation — Induced-Roll Drum (2D)
A 2D companion to the 3D rare-earth magnetic separator: an induced-roll drum spins under a stationary magnet, and every particle's fate is decided by a live force balance — centrifugal force flinging it outward vs. the magnet's attraction holding it against susceptibility. Tune field strength and drum speed and watch strongly-paramagnetic grains cling deep into the arc while gangue flies off tangentially near the top.
A rotating drum spins mixed ore past a fixed magnet. Watch each grain's own magnetic susceptibility decide the exact angle at which centrifugal force finally overcomes the magnet's grip — strongly-paramagnetic rare-earth minerals cling deep into the arc and land in the concentrate bin, while non-magnetic gangue flies off almost immediately into the tailings.
