JUSTIFICATION
Flotation gold recovery is currently averaging between 70 to 75% while flotation tails are at 0.90g/t. The prevailing flotation gold recovery is being obtained by excessive dosage of PAX while more cyanide is dosed at the CIL to improve the leach recovery of the high grade flotation tails. We have observed high flotation gold recovery on the
occassion we operate 1 mill resulting in high flotation residence time hence the motivation to install a fourth cell to permanently increase the residence time. Installing an additional cell will enable the reduction of PAX dosage as required mass pull is spread across 4 cells and this will also result in improved quality of the concentrate.
Moreover the decrease in flotation tails grade will allow for reduced cyanide dosage at the CIL as the gold will be concentrated in a smaller concentrate volume.
