cyanide gold extraction pilot plant

Small-scale pilot-plant tests on the resin-in-pulp …

The feed pulp for the RIP pilot plant was leached and stored in a 650 m3 Browns tank, from which it was pumped over a vibrating 28-mesh screen and into the first absorption tank at a flow-rate of 800 lIh. The resin was transferred every 48 hours by draining each tank in turn over a 35-mesh screen; the pulp was pumped back into the tank from ...
