Concentration process

[Ismael123]

Hi everyone
One ore, it has three main minerals/formations.
Sulfides
Silicates
Iron

Au is in sulfides
Pgms are in iron and iron is bonded with silicates.

I want saperate three types.
Idea is to float the ore first to collect all the sulfides. (Then next steps of extraction)

Then run the tailings on shaker to collect magnetic/heavy fraction. Then Test the both concentrates and tailings.
I want float with household items like pine oil. Question is,
Is this idea ok to start?
For floatation،200 mesh is ok?
Only pine oil will work to float?

And yes, ph , air bubling, will be adjusted. At what pH, all sulfides will float.
