F.f–F.t=C.c–C.t+T.t–T.t
F(f–t)=C(c–t)
Hence: F/C = c – t / f – t
Or K=c–t/f–t
:Recovery(R)-3
It is that part of a valuable element which is present in the
feed and recovered in the concentrate, expressed as a
.percentage
:In other words
C.c c.(f – t)
R = --------- x 100 OR R = --------- x 100
F.f f.(c – t)
= Since F/C = c – t/ f – t
15.21 = 0.79 – 3.5 /0.79 – 42.0
Hence F = 15.21x C
15.21x249.2 = 3790.3 tons =
