Then, some mineral particles in the gold-containing slurry are selectively fixed on the bubbles, and the bubbles are floated on the top of the slurry. Finally, the blowing pump 13 is started to blow air into the inner cavity of the flotation tank 2, and the flotation foam is allowed to enter the foam outlet trough 3 by wind force, and the foam is allowed to fall from the front end of the foam outlet trough 3 into the foam receiving trough 5. In addition, the second motor 10 is used to drive the first reciprocating screw 9 to rotate, and the threaded fit between the first reciprocating screw 9 and the movable seat 11 is used to drive the movable seat 11, the blowing box 12 and the blowing hood 15 to move back and forth horizontally, ensuring that the flotation tank 2 and the foam outlet trough 3 are completely blown and the foam is completely blown out.
