Laser, Stillwater first concentration process is essentially gravitational. Actually floatation and separation, and I think they are using a "special" surfactant and the affinity of the high grade particles to that surfactant cause trapping in top foam, but I am not sure of this. By the time they are finished with this concentration step they are well above an oz/ton (of the concentrates).
