The grade and recovery of gold in the flotation concentrates were 49.44 g/t and 33.36%, respectively. The total recovery of gold was 90.94%. The gravity–flotation combined beneficiation pretreatment process provided a feasible method for the refractory gold ore and ensured the effective recovery of gold.
Gold can be found in complex sulfide minerals in particular, pyrite and arsenopyrite (Asamoah et al, 2018). In refractory gold ores, the gold is highly encapsulated in the sulfide matrix and pre-treatment is an important process to recover gold from the sulfide minerals. The sulfide minerals interfere with recovery of gold thus it is imperative
Mar 17, 2020· High sulfide gold ore refers to 20% -30% of gold wrapped by sulfide (mainly pyrite). It is better to use gravity separation, flotation, or flotation-cyanidation process. The following is an analysis of specific beneficiation tests, and introduces four commonly used gold processing methods for high-sulfide gold ores.
