A framework for a techno-economic due diligence on an alternative approach to mining gold in South Africa13 August 2012 (has links)
M.B.A. / The South African economy places great reliance on the gold mining sector, both for employment opportunities and revenue. Due to the increased price volatility of this precious metal in international markets, the economy has been placed under enormous pressure due to the loss of jobs and lower revenues generated, particularly from the country's marginal mines. Through discussions with representatives from the various facets of the mining industry, it has been noted that a large portion of the prospective and existing gold reserves are not being mined. This may be due to the high capital investment required to start-up such an operation and the resultant dividends are not appealing enough to attract the investment. Unrest amongst unionised labour has reduced productivity in the work force and this has further increased the cost of production, placing many South African gold mines in the "red". Historically, gold mines owned all of their own equipment and bore all of the risk. For all this investment, they took all of the profit, or loss from the operation, but this increased cost of capital and risk does not bring along an increased return on investment due to the volatility in both the gold price and the currency exchange rate. The aim of the research report is to establish a framework for conducting a technoeconomic due diligence in identifying a viable alternative to the traditional methods of mining gold in South Africa. The objectives of this dissertation are: To determine the viability of conducting an alternative approach to mining gold in South Africa; To determine if the proposed alternative approach would tolerate a lower gold selling price than the present methods and still remain profitable; To determine the barriers to entry and the pitfalls of mining gold in South Africa.

A study of the fine gold recovery of selected sluicebox configurationsHamilton, James F. January 1988 (has links)
The recovery of placer gold from 20 mesh to 150 mesh in common sluicebox configurations was investigated. Two types of riffles, 1-10H expanded metal (1.5"x.75"x.25") and 1.25" angle iron riffles (dredge riffles), were used in conjunction with 3/8" thick "Nomad" matting for 25 tests. The effects of variations in upper feed size, water flow rate, sluice gradient, and solids feed rate on the recovery of placer gold particles are documented.
The gold and test gravel were obtained from the Teck Corporation sluicing operation on Sulphur Creek, Yukon Territory during July, 1985. Approximately nine troy ounces of placer gold and fifteen tons of gravel were transported to Vancouver.B.C. A test sluice facility was constructed in Coquitlam,B.C. to simulate operating conditions in a typical Yukon placer operation. The sluicebox was 12" wide and 8' long with clear plexiglass sidewalls. Screened gravel of either 3/4" or 1/4" upper feed size was fed to this sluice from a hopper at rates of up to 1260 lb/min. The water pumping capacity was a maximum of 400 USGPM. Between 75 and 90 grams of each of three sizes of placer gold (-20+28#, -35+48#, -65+100# ) were premixed with the gravel for most tests. The final test used 25 grams of -100+150 mesh gold.
Sluicing, when properly controlled, was found to be a highly effective means of concentrating placer gold as small as 150 mesh. Expanded metal riffles were far superior to dredge riffles in concentrating gold of this size range. Recovery of the -65+100# size fraction frequently exceeded 90% when using expanded metal riffles. Visual observation of eddies formed downstream of the riffles showed that scour depth between riffles was the one characteristic of the slurry flow that gave the best indication of the resulting gold recovery. For expanded metal, scour depths between 1/2 and 3/4 of the riffle depth were found the most effective. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Mining Engineering, Keevil Institute of / Graduate
