The accolades are an acknowledgement of Jameson's groundbreaking flotation technology, the Jameson Cell. The technology, which was made available in the late 1980s after 20 years of research, enables the mining industry to create billions of dollars of extra value by using bubbles to capture super-fine particles of less than a …

grades and the demand for improved flotation selectivity, all bring new challenges to minerals processing flowsheets. The Outotec Concorde Cell technology helps flotation circuits overcome these challenges and achieve improved efficiency in fine and ultra-fine particle recovery. Concorde Cell™ is an ideal flotation solution due to:

Pre-19th century placer mining operations used mercury to dissolve the gold in crushed ore, making it easier to recover. Later innovations include the MacArthur-Forrest Process and borax flux extraction. However, one of the most interesting methods is froth flotation. Froth flotation works by exploiting the hydrophobic properties of gold molecules.

In the conventional flotation cell, the detachment of particles from the bubbles due to turbulence is the main reason for the decline in the coarse particle recovery (De et al., 2007, Fuerstenau et al., 2007).However, turbulence is imperative in the flotation cell to bring about bubble particle collision, keep particles in suspension, and disperse …

A flotation bank is a serial arrangement of cells. How to optimally operate a bank remains a challenge. This article reviews three reported strategies: air profiling, mass-pull (froth velocity) profiling and Peak Air Recovery (PAR) profiling. These are all ways of manipulating the recovery profile down a bank, which may be the property being exploited.

The largest mechanical flotation machines available today have unit volumes in the range of 38 to 42 m³ (1,350 to 1,500 cft). In fact, the motivating forces of increasing capital and energy costs and decreasing ore grades, which created the need for large flotation cells, not only still exist, but are becoming more critical.

Application of flotation on a reasonable scale within the gold-mining industry commenced in the early 1930s following the introduction of water-soluble flotation collectors (specifically xanthates and dithiophosphate collectors) that allowed differential flotation of sulfide minerals, followed by the installation of pyrite flotation plants on …

Mechanical cells have seen an exponential increase in size over the past 60 years. However, a possible size limitation due to carrying capacity constraints has been raised. Taking a Cu porphyry case, a cell sizing exercise is used to show that possible size limitation due to carrying capacity can be tested using available techniques. A range of …
