Does pulp density have an effect on enhanced gravity concentrator performance?
The thicker the pulp density the more difficult it is for FINE gold particles to migrate to the riffle collection zone. Pulp densities of greater than 60% are not recommended for this reason. Treating more dilute streams in the order of 40-50% solids will maximize FINE gravity gold production. Sepro Mineral Systems has numerous installations operating at 60 – 70% solids primarily recovering coarse gold from grinding circuits.
