PP99, is this the info you are referring to?
PP99, is this the info you are referring to?It is my understanding that the flotation plant will be used to recover the Platinum and Palladium from the gravity tailings. The Metallurgical studies on recoveries of the gold and PGM's was completed back in April, 2012. Not sure if that is what pp99 was referring to or if I missed something. It certainly indicates to me that the gold will be
extracted from the gravity-only process and only the gold residues will enter the flotation plant where the PGM will be recovered along with the gold from tailings. Anyways here the link to the report...

"Despite excellent results for gold, as expected, the very fine-grained platinum and palladium minerals at Serra Pelada do not recover well in a gravity-only process and therefore recent efforts have focused on froth flotation of the gravity circuit tailings as a means to recover platinum, palladium and residual gold.
