ادامه مطلبAlthough flash flotation is defined for coarse gold, it is more suitable for liberated fine gold grains. (Newcombe, 2012) Flash flotation can be considered in three conditions. Firstly, flash flotation may be preferred if there is significant GRG content in the ore. Secondly, the amount of GRG may be distributed in fine fractions.
