Driven by gold's inherent value and relative rarity, mining technology has continuously evolved to use ore more efficiently and extract every molecule of gold possible. One of the earliest methods for extracting gold, salt cementation, was perfected by the Lydian Empire during the Iron Age.Pre-19th century placer mining operations …

The finely ground undersized ore, which bypasses the gravity circuit, is treated by a flotation circuit to recover the gold which is entrained in the finer size fractions. The ore is mixed with amyl xanthate flotation reagents in a conditioning tank prior to entering the rougher flotation cells. These are two lines of OK cells each with ten tanks.

1. Background. The application of flotation on a reasonable scale within the gold-mining industry commenced in the early 1930s following the introduction of water-soluble flotation collectors (specifically xanthates and dithiophosphate collectors) that allowed differential flotation of sulfide minerals (Weinig and Carpenter, 1937, Rabone, …

Until the late 1960s, most of the flotation activity was centered in Canada with gold production coming from flotation treatment of refractory, copper-gold and other complex ore types (Dunne 2005). During the late 1960s flotation of pyrite was a key focus in many South African gold operations to meet the needs of sulfuric acid market from the ...
