The utilization of coaloil agglomerates in the recovery of gold is based on the 'natural' hydrophobicity/oleophilicity of gold, a property which according to the consensus of most surface chemistry experts is brought about by the ease by which gold surface becomes contaminated.

The Coal Gold Agglomeration (CGA) process was developed some years ago and has the advantage in that gold is recovered by a procedure which has little or no negative impact on the environment. A gold ore containing liberated gold particles is contacted with coaloil agglomerates, whereby the gold is recovered into the coal/oil phase.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377This paper describes the use of coaloil agglomerates in flotation to increase the gold recovery from an ore containing fine gold particles. The effects of operating parameters on gold flotation recovery such as oil type, particle size of agglomerating material, agglomerate/ore and oil/ore ratios were investigated. The studies showed that petroleum oils are more effective than vegetable oils ...

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The theoretical foundation of the CGA process is based on the difference in free energy and was expressed as a function of the interfacial tensions and threephase contact angles between gold, oil and water, together with the ratio of coaloil agglomerate to gold particle radii, as the free energy is a measure of the thermodynamic stability and ...
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377This study aimed to investigate the applicability of coaloil gold agglomeration (CGA) assisted flotation to recover gold from a refractory ore. The ore with the grade of 25 g/t was tested with the CGAflotation process in six different size fractions from 38 to 300 μm using different collector types and dosages.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The coalgoldagglomeration process (CGA) for the recovery of liberated gold with agglomerates made from powdered coal and oil was developed less than 20 years ago (House et al., 1988a; Cadzow and Lamb (1989)). However the use of similar agglomerates as collectors for other minerals was discovered much earlier.
