MINERAL DRESSING TESTWORK

Flotation is very common in recovery of precious and base metals and industrial minerals. Peacocke & Simpson often applies innovative thinking to flotation testing, for example flotation in association with gravity concentration or ultrafine grinding, to add the edge to a widely applied process.



Whilst undertaking batch flotation tests for the optimisation of the reagent suite to be used at Zimplats SMC platinum complex in Zimbabwe, Peacocke & Simpson developed an interactive spreadsheet that allowed the client to predict platinum flotation plant performance by selecting various permutations and combinations of reagent types and dosages from 56 separate bench tests conducted in Peacocke & Simpson's laboratory.
