The following treatment strategy was applied to a sample of this ore： gold flotation-gold concen- trate leaching-lead and zinc flotation from the gold concentrate leaching residue. Closed-circuit trials of gold flotation yielded a gold concen- trate that assayed at 40.23 g·t-1 Au with a recovery of 86.25%. The gold concentrate leaching rate was 98.76%. Two variants of lead-zinc flotation from the residue--preferential flotation of lead and zinc and bulk flotation of lead and zinc--were tested using the middling processing method. Foam from the reflotation was returned to the lead rougher flotation or lead-zinc bulk flotation, whereas middlings from reflotation were discarded. Sulfur concentrate was a byproduct. The combined strategy of flotation, leaching, and flotation is recommended for the treatment of this kind of ore.展开更多

The main components of the mineral were separated and the physical parameters of each mineral were measured. Comprehensive recovery of tin, sulfur and arsenic from the mixed mineral was studied. A joint flowsheet of flotation and gravity was developed according to the mineralogical characteristics of the sample. Flotation was carried out first to produce sulfur concentrate while the tailing was processed by a second flotation to obtain rougher arsenic concentrate which was further processed by gravity separation to get arsenic concentrate and the tailing of gravity separation was processed to obtain tin concentrate.展开更多
