摘要： Disclosed is a process of leaching gold that can be inexpensively and efficiently carried out from a mixture containing sulfur and gold, typically from the material containing sulfur and gold that is an intermediate product recovered by the flotation method in the hydrometallurgical method. Specifically, disclosed is a process of leaching gold from the mixture containing elemental sulfur and gold, the process involving combining the mixture containing elemental sulfur and gold and an aqueous solution of hydroxide of one or more of metals of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, the hydroxides reacting with elemental sulfur to form thiosulfate of alkali and/or alkaline earth metal, and the gold thereby being leached by reaction with the thiosulfate.

摘要： A synthetic bead for use in mineral separation is described. The synthetic bead has a surface made of a synthetic material such as polymer and the synthetic material is functionalized with molecules having a functional group for attracting mineral particles to the surface in a separation process. The synthetic beads can be placed in flotation cell containing a mixture of water, valuable material and unwanted material or in a pipeline where the mixture is transported from one location to another. The enriched synthetic beads carrying the mineral particles are separated from the unwanted materials in the mixture. The mineral particles are then released from the synthetic beads by means of low pH treatment, ultrasonic agitation, thermal or electromagnetic treatment.

摘要： The invention relates to a method of using a flotation machine that is used in metallurgical processes and to a flotation machine. The flotation machine foams hydrophobic particles from an aqueous slurry that contains these particles. The flotation machine includes a flotation cell (1), and a rotor (2) that is inside the flotation cell. The rotor (2) is rotated at a mixing power, which maintains the suspension in the slurry and mixing of air with the slurry to form the foam, and the mixing power is controlled by adjusting the rotation speed of the rotor. The amount of solid matter S accumulated on the bottom of the cell (1) is determined, and the rotation speed of the rotor (2) is adjusted on the basis of the determined amount of solid matter. The flotation machine includes a measuring device (5) for determining the amount of solid matter accumulated on the bottom of the cell. The adjusting device (4) is arranged to adjust the rotation speed of the motor (3), which rotates the rotor (2), on the basis of the measuring result of the measuring device (5) to remove the solid matter from the bottom of the cell.
