The final beneficiation flowsheet was proposed as shown in Fig. 9, as no significant achievement was attained by re-concentrating the middlings after the milling. According to this, it can be observed that the coarse and fine middlings were recirculated back to the TBS while the second-stage scavenging spiral was omitted.
