This performance has been achieved in the plant, at 72% Cu overall recovery. With the gradual improvements on-going with zinc circuit capacity and
The use of various flotation circuits has been reviewed elsewhere [ 1,5]. Flotation circuit configuration can be divided into two categories, viz. open circuits with no cleaning at all, and open and closed circuits with single and two stage cleaning. Open circuits have the advantage of avoiding the feedback of non-steady state effects.
The gold content in the −20 µm fraction of tailings is only about 0.36 g/t, which is lower than in the existing flotation circuit (0.47 g/t), including rougher and scavenger banks.
