RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Optimal structure obtained from the optimization. Change the scavenger 1 and
scavenger 2 concentrate stream. This structure with the metallurgical disjunction will
improve the concentration plant.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Results of grade and recovery comparing the mine and the model optimization.
Different residence times were tested to know which one is the best. Its convenient to
reduce the residence time. The best residence time is at 5 minutes

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Different metallurgical parameters are calculated depending on the residence time.
This table shows the results from 1 to 10 minutes of residence time. The disjunctions
of 5 minutes are chosen.
