Froth Flotation and Gold Extraction

In gold mining, froth flotation is used to separate gold from gangue by utilizing gold's hydrophobicity. First, refractory gold ore is ground as finely as possible – usually so the individual grains are much less that 100 micrometers. The ground up ore is mixed with water to create a slurry, which is mixed with surfactants to increase the ...

Characterization and flotation of gold in carbon fines at

At the Fort Knox Mine, Fairbanks, Alaska, carbon fines are generated during stripping, acid washing and kiln regeneration operations. Because of their gold value, carbon fines are collected by a filter press. Samples of the carbon fines show that they consist of 20% to 30% carbon, 70% to 80% grit and 0.17 to 0.68 g/kg (5.0–19.9 oz/st) …
