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 step)

Then run on shaker to collect magnetic/heavy fraction
Test the 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?
