FLOTATION ( hybrid green mining ) How much acids would be saved ?
Envision a long rectangle open face - flotation bed - with water coursing through.
400 mesh argillite graphite along with 400 mesh gold.
The bottom of the flotation bed is lined with something - very unique.
Graphite atomic mass - 12.001
Gold atomic mass - 196.967

Whether SPA captures a second mineral credit or, not.
The main premise of this post is to point out, another way to sort ores ( incircut ) without the
high costs of, acids and the potential time saved waiting for acids to dissolve....
= might save big bucks...
If graphite is far lighter than gold... and ores were 400 mesh fines,
it does make one wonder if the graphite/carbon would riseto the surface all the quicker
with the aide of the ( magnests ) and along with their inherant petro composition.
If stronge, larger magnest were employed...
magnests that were pretested to repel a certain wergiht while factoring water flow resistence,
a force repel equation that compensated for the weight of graphite and force of water flow and
weak enough that it would not levatate the 400 mesh gold... then ?
How quickly could ore be processedin which to float and expel the carbon graphite ?
If it ever did work, my hunch says... helluva lot faster than, waiting for acids to solubilze.
= FAR MORE TONNAGE PROCESSED.
= REDUCE COSTS / REAGENTS
= MORE GOLD OUNCES
Simple blade diverter guides the levatated ( carbon ) atop water - out of circut
while keeping gold intact at bottom of float bed..
Juat ideas...
Something new, different for the mining industry.
The arranging of the magnetic polarity vortexes is a very ingenius way to
separate light weight ores from gold.
Cheers...
Hey... few extra posts...
