Résumé : |
Laboratory and industrial scale experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of tertiary dodecyl mercaptan (TDM) as a collector on the flotation of auriferous pyrite and arsenopyrite. The optimum recovery of gold associated with auriferous sulphides was obtained by adding a mixture of TDM and sodium butyl xanthate, together with only a little CuSO4 as an activator in a weak alkaline pulp adjusted by NaOH. A two-month industrial trial at the Liumei plant in Guangxi, China showed that an average gold recovery of 90.8% into a concentrate assaying 81.1 g/t Au from a feed assaying 2.9 g/t Au could be achieved at pH 8–8.5 using TDM as a collector. |
