3 Product Recovery Formula: Material Balancing & Metallurgical Accounting
Frequently, a concentrator will mill a complex ore requiring the production of two separate concentrates, each of which is enriched in a different metal or valuable mineral, plus a final tailing acceptably low in both constituents. Formulas have been developed which use the feed tonnage and assays of the two recovered values to obtain the […]

Hydrocyclone Design and Sizing Parameters
Here is a hydrocyclone sizing calculator with immediate access to all design equations needed for your hydrocyclone design calculation in an online XLS spreadsheet format. Based on first principles of hydrocyclone theory and equations, this quasi design software lets you enter all cyclone design parameters such as cut size, D50, D60 (efficiency calculation), graphs your results. Calculate diameter of […]
Mineral Processing Pilot Plant Trials
Personnel from engineering firms frequently use data from pilot-plant operations for designing a full- scale plant. Data from pilot- plant testing may be supplied by the client, bv independent research laboratories, or. in other cases, by the engineering people involved in the pilot-plant operation to develop their own engineering, metallurgical, mineral processing and chemical data. […]
OVERENGINEERING
Recently we were talking with the manager of one of the larger copper concentrators in Arizona when he took off on the subject of overengineering and standardization and engineers who practiced the former but had no acquaintance with the latter. The particular reason for his wrath at that moment was $70,000 worth of conveyor head. […]

Flotation Cell Capacity vs Retention Time
This online calculator helps you on how to calculate or estimate either what size/volume flotation cell and well as conditioning tank + how many flotation cells your bank needs to accommodate the retention time you need. Design Retention time is usually obtained from laboratory testwork and proper use of Lab-to-Plant flotation scale-up factors. An Example of […]
Antique Jaw Stone Breaker
TON RECIPROCATED Antique JAW STONE BREAKER: Curved by owners in installing and operating individual pumping plants. The new mechanical filtration or rapid sand filter plant for Baltimore comprises 32 filters each of 1440 square feet area and a capacity of 4,000,000 gallons daily. The turbidity of the water led to the adoption of this system in […]
Flotation Cyanidation Amalgamation Equipment
With the demand for the base and precious metal steadily upward Denver “Sub-A” (Fahrenwald) Flotation cells are in greater demand than ever before. Leading producers know that Denver Cells are the lowest cost units per ton of ore treated. Denver mineral jigs save the free mineral values from the ball mill classifier circuit, without dilution. […]
Flotation and Gravity for Better Recovery
HIGHER RECOVERIES ALWAYS RESULT when freed mineral is removed from the fine grinding circuit. Here are the two profit making machines which have today made this step standard practice in milling plants the world over. The Denver unit Flotation cell has definite place in every flotation plant where lead, copper, zinc or other sulphides are […]
