Benefits of the Process
Our process will result in a more efficient and profitable operation through:
- Substantial reduction in gold lost in fines being pumped to tails
- Substantial reduction from carbon lost from ‘grinding’
- Reduced blinding of intertank screens, allowing increased throughput
- Removal of unwanted and preg-robbing material
- More efficient stripping operations with only clean and consistently sized carbon moving through your stripping/regeneration circuit
- Allows the mine to decrease the stocks of new carbon held
- The removal of sand and grit reducing carbon wearing and gold loss
Recovery Process

Pre-conditioning, incorporating:
- Scalping @ + 12mm material
- Scrubbing of material (pressure washing)
- Scalping @ +6.0mm

Drying of material

Gravity separation, removing:
- Sand and grit – to greatly reduce carbon ‘wearing’ and loss of gold and blinding of screens
- Silica – redusing ‘gumming’ within your stripping circuit
- Woodpulp
- Plastic and rubber

The cleaned carbon will then be:
- Sized to your requirements (generally 2mm RH & 1.5mm slot)
- Product bagged and numbered (3 lines)
