Gold Flotation
The flotation process, which is today so extensively used for the concentration of base-metal sulphide ores and is finding increased use in many other fields. In 1932 flotation plants began to be installed for the treatment of gold and silver ores as a substitute for or in conjunction with cyanidation. The principles involved …See more on 911metallurgist

Optimisation of gold recovery by selective gold flotation for copper
Native gold and electrum are naturally-occurring alloys containing gold and silver and a little copper. They are the most common and important forms of gold in ores. Their recovery by gravity concentration, cyanidation, or flotation from ores, typically containing 0.1–20 g/t Au is of great commercial importance.

Flotation is the main method of processing copper ores
The total share of xanthates used in US plants is ~60%, dithiophosphates – about 40%. Suppressors of gangue minerals are not usually used in flotation of copper disseminated ores. But if the pulp has an increased content of slimes, then liquid glass (up to 0.4 g/t) is added to the main copper flotation and to the copper concentrate re-cleaning.

Silver Gold Recovery Flotation Process
Similarly, in a copper or lead ore carrying gold associated with pyrite, it might be profitable to make an iron concentrate containing the gold. If the gold and silver can only be brought up in the desired concentrate by contaminating it with unwanted mineral, the mode of procedure must be determined by the economics of the case.
