उत्तर

Galena

Explanation:

Galena (PbS) is best concentrated by the froth flotation method because it is a sulphide ore, and froth flotation is particularly effective for sulphide ores. The ore particles become hydrophobic due to the collector agents used, allowing them to attach to air bubbles and float to the surface, thus separating from the gangue. Magnetite, siderite, and malachite are not sulphide ores and therefore are not best concentrated by froth flotation. This is aligned with the textbook explanation specifying that froth flotation is most suitable for ores like galena.
