Complete Gold Ore Processing Solution for Africa
1. Project Background
Africa is one of the richest continents in terms of gold resources, with major deposits located in Ghana, Sudan, Tanzania, Mali, Nigeria, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. To meet the growing demand for efficient, eco-friendly, and cost-effective gold beneficiation in small and medium-scale African mines, Yinhao Machinery provides a reliable and customized gold ore processing solution. This system is suitable for primary gold, oxidized ore, and gold-bearing associated ores.
2. Ore Types and Processing Objectives
This solution is ideal for:
-
Oxidized gold ore, primary gold ore, and ores with minor sulfide content;
-
Free gold in coarse and fine form;
-
Processing capacity from 5 to 50 tons per hour (customizable);
-
The goal is to achieve a gold recovery rate of 90% or above, reduce chemical usage, and minimize environmental impact.
3. Recommended Processing Flow
The core of the processing system is gravity separation, supported by crushing, grinding, classification, and optional leaching if needed.
Typical Process Flow:
-
Feeding & Primary Crushing
– Vibrating Feeder + Jaw Crusher to crush ore to 0–60 mm; -
Secondary Crushing & Screening
– Fine Jaw Crusher / Cone Crusher + Vibrating Screen to reduce size to 0–20 mm; -
Grinding & Classification
– Ball Mill + Spiral Classifier to grind ore to 80% passing 200 mesh; -
Gravity Separation
– Gold Shaking Table, Centrifugal Gold Concentrator, or Spiral Chute for coarse or free gold recovery; -
Concentrate Collection & Smelting
– Collected gold concentrates can be directly smelted or further refined; -
Tailings Treatment
– Tailings dewatering screen or dry discharge system for eco-friendly waste handling.
If gold is extremely fine, optional CIP or CIL processes can be introduced to improve recovery efficiency.
