Agglomeration flocculation as a gold extraction method from anthropogenic deposits

There have been offered the processes based on the agglomeration flocculation to be used for gold extraction from anthropogenic deposits, which were formed during ore dressing at the concentration plants(GEF -factories). The research was done on the basis of two test samples taken from GEFfactories tales. The GEF-factories use gravitational- metallurgical and gravitational-flotation technologies. In the course of the research the gold distribution according to size grade and material constitution of tales from Kommunarovskaya and Artyomovskaya GEF-factories were studied. As a result the offered processes provide gold extraction from test samples at the level of 74.8 and 81.4 %, when metal concentration degrees are 27 and 10.
