1. Introduction. Froth flotation is a complex process known for more than a century [Citation 1].It has one of the largest tonnage capacities among separation technologies [Citation 2].The process is a cornerstone of numerous industries, such as wastewater treatment (e.g. sewage treatment and water purification), the energy sector (e.g. …

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 …

1. Introduction. Pyrrhotite predominates among iron sulfides in a number of copper–gold sulfide deposits, and its recovery during the flotation process reduces product quality and causes environmental problems such as iron oxide slag generation and sulfur oxide emissions in the downstream smelting process (Allison and O'Connor, 2011).However, …

As a pre-treatment method of refractory gold ore, carbonaceous matter (C-matter) flotation was investigated with multi-stage flotation by rougher, scavenger, and cleaner stages. Different dosages of kerosene and MIBC (4-Methyl-2-pentanol) were applied and the optimum dosage was selected by testing in each flotation stage. With …

Gold flotation is widely used in the case of refractory ores, in which small-sized gold particles, locked within sulfide minerals, are recovered through flotation of gold-bearing minerals (Marsden and House, 2006). It is also an effective means for separating free gold from silicate particles present in ore.
