DEVELOPMENTS IN MINERAL PROCESSING

Series edited by
Barry A. Wills , Camborne School of Mines, Cornwall, UK

Description
The gold processing industry is experiencing change. As free-milling and oxide ores become depleted, more complex polymetallic and refractory ores are being processed, coupled with increasing pressure for stricter environmental compliance. Recent years have also seen a steady reduction in mineral processing and metallurgy graduates and a gradual loss of older operating experience. A contribution to documenting current and future practice in gold ore processing seems timely.

The focus of this volume is on advances in current gold plant operation, from conception to closure; each chapter or section also covers innovations at the bench and pilot-scale level that would be expected to find commercial application at some stage. Coverage is also given to the chemistry and engineering aspects. Contributions have been put together by a global network of experts in the field.

The general principle behind the structure of the volume is that of flowsheeting based on unit operations and applied to a mineralogical classification of gold ore types. From concept to closure, this book covers all unit operations, mineralogies and processes that are relevant to dealing with today?s complex orebodies.
