Turn an assay into an expected recovery scenario. Enter the feed's contained gold and a process recovery assumption to estimate fine gold recovered and the value associated with it.
The recovery percentage is an assumption about process performance. It should come from historical runs, technical testing or an appropriate process model rather than being treated as a guaranteed result.
A high assay does not automatically mean high recovered gold. The assay describes what is present; recovery describes how much of that contained gold is expected to make it into the recovered product.
Contained fine gold multiplied by expected recovery.
No.
Yes, when gold price is entered.
To calculate theoretical contained fine gold.
