Small Scale Fine Gold Concentrator OEM 5TPH-200TPH Fine Gold Recovery Machine

Small scale gold mining concentrator

1.Product Introduction Gold Ore Processing Equipment

The Small-Scale Gold Mining Concentrator is a gravity-based mineral processing system specifically engineered for individual miners, small-scale mining operations, and remote regions. The core technology utilized is the water-jacketed centrifugal concentrator, represented by leading domestic and international brands such as Knelson, Jiedeng, and Chuanqi. These units operate on the principle of centrifugally enhanced gravity separation, requiring no chemical reagents. They are highly effective at processing micro-fine gold with particle sizes ranging from 0.004mm to 0.074mm, achieving recovery rates as high as 97%–99%. With a compact structural design, these concentrators support mobile operations and typically feature a power range of 1.5–22kW. Throughput capacities cover a broad spectrum from 100kg/h to 100t/h, satisfying requirements ranging from laboratory testing to daily multi-ton industrial production.

2.Application Gold Ore Processing Equipment

• Placer Gold Beneficiation: Ideal for recovering natural gold from loose sediments in rivers, paleochannels, and alluvial fans; specifically suited for field operations without large-scale infrastructure.

• Hard Rock Gold Roughing: Used for pre-concentration after crushing and grinding to enhance downstream cyanide leaching efficiency, reducing reagent consumption by over 30%.

• Tailings Re-selection: Highly efficient recovery of residual fine gold (grades 0.1–0.5 g/t) from historic tailings dams, maximizing resource circularity.

• Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM): Low investment threshold ($2,500 – $10,000 USD), suitable for individual miners in Africa, Southeast Asia, and mountainous regions.

• Mobile Processing Platforms: Can be integrated into trailers or containers to form an integrated "Crushing–Grinding–Centrifugal Separation" skid-mounted system for rapid deployment at temporary sites.

3.Working Principle Gold Ore Processing Equipment

• Slurry Feeding: Slurry conditioned to a concentration of 30–50% enters the high-speed rotating conical rotor from the bottom.

• Centrifugal Enrichment: The rotor spins to generate centrifugal forces of 200–600G. High-density gold particles are flung toward and captured within the inner wall grooves, while light-density gangue overflows from the top.

• Periodic Discharge: After 1–4 hours of operation, the system automatically pauses. High-pressure backwash water flushes the enriched gold concentrate from the grooves into a collection tank.

• Continuous Operation: Select models support dual-cone alternating operation to achieve uninterrupted processing and boost efficiency.

• Synergistic Circuit: Can be integrated with vibrating screens, ball mills, and shaking tables to form a "Gravity + Flotation" combined circuit for further recovery of residual fines.

4.Advantages Gold Ore Processing Equipment

• Ultra-High Recovery: Achieves 95%–99% recovery for fine gold (0.01–0.074mm), far outperforming traditional sluice boxes (<60%).

• Eco-Friendly & Non-Toxic: Purely physical separation; eliminates the use of mercury or cyanide, meeting global green mining trends.

• Low Operating Costs: Unit energy consumption is <0.8 kWh/t with simple maintenance and long-life critical components.

• Modular Integration: Seamlessly interfaces with crushing, grinding, and dewatering equipment to build mobile processing plants.

• Rapid ROI: Using a 50 t/h unit as an example, annual gold recovery of 1.5–3 kg typically results in an investment payback period of <12 months.

• Policy Alignment: Complies with resource utilization policies, assisting enterprises in qualifying for government subsidies.
