Gold Ore Froth Flotation

Flotation of Gold and Gold-Bearing Ores

The gold ore from sulfide minerals is, in general, ore dressed by means of nine stages among which stand out flotation and cyanidation. The residues of these steps, containing potentially toxic elements, such as As, Cd, Cr, Mn, Zn and Pb disposed of tailings dams, which might be a source of environmental contamination if not suitably disposed and/or in cases of …
