Gold Flotation
GOLD FLOTATION. The flotation process, which is today so extensively used for the concentration of base-metal sulphide ores and is finding increased use in many other fields. In 1932 flotation plants began to be installed for the treatment of gold and silver ores as a substitute for or in conjunction with cyanidation.

The flash flotation cell is particularly important in the gold and silver concentration process (in liberated particles below 100 µm and associated with other minerals). These particles are not sorted into the hydrocyclone overflow, remaining in the mill–hydrocyclone system as a circulating load due to their high density (Mulleneers et al ...
