1. APERTURA IMPULSADA POR EL PUNTO DE DOLOR

Scaling your gold recovery operation to 500 Tph presents distinct challenges that directly impact profitability. ¿Estás experimentando:
Alto tiempo de inactividad operativa: Frequent clogging in scrubbers or screens from claybound material, leading to costly hourly production losses.
Tasas de recuperación inconsistentes: Variable feed material causing gold losses in fines or inefficient separation, directly reducing revenue per ton processed.
Excessive Water & Consumo de energía: Inefficient washing and screening loops consuming disproportionate resources, eroding margin in remote locations.
High Maintenance Burden: Constant wear on components from abrasive feeds and inadequate material handling, increasing spare parts costs and labor hours.
Limitaciones de escalabilidad: A plant that cannot handle peak feed volumes or adapt to changing ore body characteristics, capping your operation’s potential.

La pregunta central para los gerentes de planta es: ¿Cómo se logra ser confiable?, highvolume throughput with predictable operating costs and maximized recovery? La respuesta está en un diseño específico 500 Tph gold mining washing plant.

2. DESCRIPCIÓN GENERAL DEL PRODUCTO

This solution is a complete, modular gold mining washing plant engineered for alluvial and eluvial deposits. It is designed for primary scrubbing, clay breakdown, cribado, and gravity concentration preconcentration at a nominal 500tonperhour throughput.

Flujo de trabajo operativo:
1. Alimentación primaria & Depuración: Runofmine (memoria de sólo lectura) material is fed into a robust scrubbing system designed to break down clay agglomerates and dissolve cemented materials.
2. Apresto & Clasificación: The scrubbed ore passes through vibrating screens to separate +2mm to +10mm (configurable) demasiado grande (gravel/pebbles) from the valuable fine fraction.
3. Slurry Concentration & Gold Recovery: The undersize slurry, containing liberated gold, is routed to a series of highcapacity gravity concentrators (p.ej., concentradores centrífugos) for primary gold recovery.
4. Gestión de relaves & Water Handling: Efficient dewatering of tailings and closedloop water recycling systems are integrated to minimize environmental footprint and water consumption.

Ámbito de aplicación & Limitaciones:
Alcance: Ideal for alluvial/placer deposits, eluvial weathered ore, and saprolitic claybound ores requiring intensive washing. Serves as the primary beneficiation step before further processing or direct smelting of concentrates.
Limitaciones: No apto para roca dura. (veta) ore without prior crushing. Performance is contingent on accurate feed characterization regarding clay content, humedad, and particle size distribution.
