Mine tailings may contain base transition metals, such as iron, copper, nickel and zinc, in relatively high concentrations, and also occasionally precious metals such as gold and silver, in minerals (and native metals) that have been not been separated by froth flotation (e.g. Bryan et al., 2006, Ahmadi et al., 2015).
DetailsThe most common method used to separate gold from other metals is by using a panning technique. Panning mainly involves swishing water and sediment around in a pan in order to separate the heavier gold particles from lighter ones. This process works best with small pieces of gold, such as flakes or dust.
