The flowsheets in Figure 18.1, Figure 18.2, Figure 18.3 illustrate how liquid–solid separation fits into carbon-in-leach (CIL), carbon-in-pulp (CIP), and Merrill–Crowe circuits, respectively. In addition, heap leach, column leach, and gravity circuits also need to have liquids separated from solids, and there are many variations of the flowsheets presented.

Slurry density measurement refers to the process of determining the density or concentration of a slurry mixture. A slurry is a mixture of solid particles suspended in a liquid medium, such as water or oil. The density of a slurry is an important parameter in many industries, including mining, petroleum, wastewater treatment, and chemical ...
Reagent consumption is minimised by maximising slurry density, since optimal concentrations can be achieved at lower dosages, due to the smaller volume of solution per unit mass of material.
Measurement of ore slurry density is a measurement of solid mineral content (percentage) in the ore slurry by using an online measuring instrument. Ore slurry density affects various techno-economic indicators of mineral processing. Therefore, it is particularly important to grasp the ore slurry density in the beneficiation process.

The grinding action will not be good due to the poor cascade caused by a light density and a distinct possibility of equipment damage will be present. Density is one of the major controls for the entire concentration process, in a mill it has a very positive effect on the manner in which the rods tumble and roll.
They promote: i) the oxidation of the sulphide matrix, rendering gold more accessible to the leaching solution; ii) gold stabilisation, a result of the formation of gold-rich complexes and/or colloids; and iii) gold solubilisation by enhancing the permeability of ore bodies (Amachi, 2008; Brehm et al., 2005; Burford et al., 2003; Hilson and ...

This ratio is termed the DENSITY of the circuit. One method of measurement is simply to weigh the slurry to determine the amount of solids in relationship to the water. The density of the slurry is expressed as percentages. As an example, a density of thirty percent means there is thirty parts ore to seventy parts water.
