Heavy Mineral - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

Eoin H. Macdonald, in Handbook of Gold Exploration and Evaluation, 2007 Deposition. The preferential deposition of gold grains and other heavy minerals is usually represented in illustrations of separated flow as a two-dimensional flow field. By these means, the concept of streamlines can be used to depict the division between recirculating flow and external flow
