Reichert Cone concentrator system:
A Reichert Cone unit normally consists of a series of distributing cone pairs, as illustrated in Figure 3 below. Heavy minerals are removed through circular slots in each cone, which can be adjusted to control the yield. Due to the relative inefficiency of separation, several stages of cones connected in series are usually required for each Reichert unit to achieve adequate metallurgical results. Upgrading ratios are typically in the range of 3 to 1, which usually leads to further concentrate cleaning by either/or spirals and shaking tables or intensive cyanidation. Feed solids content to a Reichert Cone reportedly should be maintained between 60% and 63% solids by weight, and should controlled to ensure optimum grade and recovery.
