Flotation is also the best method for recovery of gold from base metal ores and gold-containing PGM ores. Excluding gravity preconcentration, flotation remains the most cost-effective bene ficiation method. Gold itself is a rare metal and the average grades for low-grade deposits vary between 3 and 6 ppm.

Abstract. The practice of the flotation of pure gold and gold-bearing ores such as tellurides, aurostibite, kerogen, pyrite, pyrrhotite, copper-gold ores and mixed sulphides is reviewed. The factors which influence the choice of collectors, pH and Eh, are discussed as well as the application of differential flotation.

The total-oxidation process is particularly advantageous for copper–gold ores. Gold can be recovered by direct cyanidation of the washed autoclave solids. Silver, if present, will likely be fixed at least partly as silver jarosite in the autoclave solids. To improve silver recovery, a lime boil is recommended (2 h at 95°C with an excess of CaO).

The flotation of oxide ores, in which sulphidisation precedes flotation, is sometimes used as an alternative to leaching, but generally produces low recoveries (Kongolo et al., 2003; Tijsseling et al., 2019). Indeed, flotation recoveries for oxide ores are around 60% for the copper and around 45% for the cobalt (Fisher and Treadgold, 2009).
