Coarse Ore Flotation

•
Coarse Ore Flotation is an aerated fluidized-bed
separator that has demonstrated increased
recovery of coarse particles compared to
conventional flotation technology
The Coarse Ore Flotation circuit treats the full
flotation tailings stream from Train 3 (T3) of the
Concentrator 1 flotation circuit at Cadia (~9Mtpa)
The primary objective of the project is to recover
gold and copper currently lost to T3 tailings in
coarse composite particles (+150 μm), without
additional power input for particle size reduction
