The adhesion of gold to oilcarbon agglomerates ScienceDirect
The coalgoldagglomeration process (CGA) for the recovery of liberated gold with agglomerates made from powdered coal and oil was developed less than 20 years ago (House et al., 1988a; Cadzow and Lamb (1989)). However the use of similar agglomerates as collectors for other minerals was discovered much earlier.
