[0002] Gold concentrate is a processed and enriched product. Since the gold ore has a low grade, typically 2-5 grams per ton, direct transportation or refining is costly and uneconomical, requiring physical beneficiation for enrichment. Gold concentrate flotation is a process that separates gold, silver, and other elements from the ore through physical and chemical methods. Tailings, a byproduct of the flotation process, offer economic value for further recycling. Chinese utility model patent application number CN208839805U discloses a grinding and flotation device designed to improve gold recovery from gold concentrate tailings. The device uses a ball mill to grind the tailings mixed with water to form a slurry. The slurry is then stored in a storage tank, stirred by agitators located at multiple corners to prevent sedimentation. The slurry is then pumped to a flotation tank for flotation. However, this solution suffers from drawbacks: the slurry in the storage tank cannot effectively prevent sedimentation due to the limited stirring range of the agitators. Furthermore, after storage, the slurry tends to adhere to the inner walls of the container, resulting in waste. Utility Model Content

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the flotation device for gold concentrate recovery of the present invention has a rotating drum 21 and a rotating shaft 22 correspondingly provided in the upper and lower parts of the storage tank 10. Stirring rods 23 are provided on both sides of the rotating drum 21 and the rotating shaft 22. An upper connecting rod 24 is hinged on the rotating drum 21, and a lower connecting rod 25 is hinged on the rotating shaft 22.

The movement of the drum 21 relative to the rotating shaft 22 is controlled to adjust the distance between the two stirring rods 23, thereby changing the stirring range, which can play a good anti-sedimentation role. After the storage of the slurry is completed, the stirring rod 23 is adjusted to its outer side in contact with the inner wall of the storage tank 10. The rotation of the stirring rod 23 can scrape off the slurry attached to the inner wall of the storage tank 10 to avoid waste.
