Patio Process. The earliest method of extraction was a method developed in the Mexican mines in the mid 1500s and familiar to the miners at Virginia City, the Patio Process. This method of processing the rocks to extract the silver was slow, did not recover all the silver, and did not use the added reagents as efficiently as possible.

Jan 12, 2022Flotation is usually used by large scale miners but can also be applied in small scale operations. It is a process that works best for processing complex ore types, especially ores that are difficult to process using gravity methods. In flotation, a mixture of slurry (crushed ore and water) and frothing agents are added into a flotation machine.
