【Project Time】May 2024
【Raw ore】Rock gold
【Capacity】700tpd
【Process 】Flotation and Gold CIP Plant
【Country】 Ethiopia
In Ethiopia, Dasen Mining provided a 700tpd gold processing plant design that combined flotation and cyanidation to achieve high recovery rates from fresh ore and historical tailings.
Process Design & Features
- Flotation Stage (Primary Recovery)
Grinding: One-stage closed-circuit grinding for optimal liberation.
Flotation Circuit: 1 rougher + 3 scavengers + 3 cleaners to maximize gold recovery.
Concentrate Treatment: Two-stage mechanical dehydration (filtration) to produce a 46g/t gold concentrate.
- Tailings Cyanidation (Secondary Recovery)
Feed Material: Flotation tailings (~1g/t Au) from 10+ million tons of stored tailings.
Process: Direct cyanide leaching (CIP) to recover residual gold.
Environmental Safety: Low harmful elements; no pollution risks.
Performance & Results
Feed Grade: 1.76g/t Au
Concentrate Grade: 46g/t Au
Overall Recovery: 93%
By integrating flotation + tailings cyanidation, this plant ensures:
✅ Maximized gold recovery from both fresh ore and legacy tailings.
✅ Sustainable resource utilization with minimal environmental impact.
✅ Economic viability through advanced, energy-efficient technology.
Dasen Mining’s tailored solution demonstrates how smart process design can unlock value from low-grade resources while maintaining operational and environmental excellence.
