The percentage of placer deposits containing fine and plate gold is constantly increasing, as well as deposits with a high content of clay particles and heavy minerals are involved in the development, resulting in an increase in the metal losses and a decrease in the efficiency of development of such deposits. The studies carried out at the deposit of the
river Uorgalan according to the evaluation of the effeciency of the sluice industrial devices PZSh-130 have allowed to identify the main factors leading to high losses in the ephelic tailings. The performed works have made it possible to significantly reduce the level of platinum losses.
