High-viscosity placer gold beneficiation process in Côte d'Ivoire, Ivory Coast, West Africa: integrated washing and screening machine + pulsating sluice + gold-adhesive blanket + automatic blanket washing machine.
Rotary Scrubber Gold Washing Plant to Ivory Coast
I. Project Background and Ore Characteristics Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), as a major gold-producing country in West Africa, has placer gold deposits characterized by significant high viscosity. This project designs an efficient beneficiation process for the local high-viscosity placer gold deposits, with the following key features:
The raw ore has a high mud content and high viscosity, which easily clogs traditional screening equipment. The gold particle size distribution is uneven, with fine-grained and flaky gold present. The high organic matter content affects sorting efficiency. Water resources are relatively abundant, making wet beneficiation suitable.
II. Process Flow Design
1. Integrated Ore Washing and Screening Machine Core Equipment: Heavy-duty drum ore washing and screening machine Process Parameters: Processing Capacity: 30-50 tons/hour Drum Diameter:
2.2 meters Length: 6 meters Screen Size: 5-10 mm (adjustable) Washing Water Pressure:
3-4 bar
Functional Advantages: Powerful crushing of clay lumps; simultaneous washing and grading; effective separation of coarse gravel and gold-bearing fine sand; anti-clogging design suitable for highly viscous materials. 2. Pulsating Sluice Roughing Equipment Selection: Double-unit pulsating sluice (with automatic slope adjustment system) Technical Features: Pulsating frequency: 200-240 times/minute; Stroke: 10-15mm adjustable; bed surface laid with coarse gold recovery grids; equipped with an automatic slope adjustment device (0-5° adjustable). Process Advantages: Highly efficient recovery of gold particles larger than +0.1mm; adaptable to feed rate fluctuations; low water consumption design (water-to-ore ratio 3:1); can handle materials containing organic matter.

3. Gold-plating carpet equipment configuration: Multi-layer inclined gold-plating carpet system; Carpet material: Special polyurethane gold carpet (wear-resistant); Slope: 12-15°; Length: 3 meters × 3 sections connected in series; Technical highlights: Special texture design captures fine gold particles; Multi-layer structure improves recovery rate; Corrosion-resistant material adapted to African climate; Easy-to-disassemble and replace design.
4. Innovative Automatic Carpet Washing Machine: Fully Automatic Gold Carpet Cleaning and Recycling System. Workflow: Automatic Feeding: Gold-stained carpets are periodically fed into the cleaning tank. High-Pressure Washing: 360° rotating nozzles (pressure 6-8 bar). Vibrating Screening: Separates coarse and fine gold. Circulating Water Treatment: Sedimentation tank recovers ultrafine gold.
