More• The thiosulphate leaching of gold ores has great potential to reduce the impact on the environment compared to the cyanidation process. Unlike cyanide, which is highly toxic, the chemicals used in the thiosulphate leaching process are benign, and there is great potential to
More2018-5-1 The main disadvantage of cyanidation is its toxicity. The environmental problems associated with the leakage of cyanide into groundwater systems and the health risks inherent in the use of this on any scale are a strong drawback (Avraamides, 1982).
More2016-1-1 Even a very low sulfide concentration could have a significantly detrimental impact on gold-leaching kinetics and overall gold extraction. Cyanidation at Fort Knox Mine was seriously affected by a minor concentration of metallic sulfide. The economic consequences were very important.
More2018-4-3 The only disadvantage of Norit Pkl-3 to Island Copper’s application appeared to be its lower bulk density (0.24 g/cm³ against 0.45-0.50 g/cm³ for most carbons). As a result of its lower density, this carbon has a greater tendency to break down in fines
More2019-10-18 Agitation leaching is suitable for process materials having a finer particle size, i.e., less than 0.3 mm. The advantages of this method are: high leaching speed, large processing capacity, mechanized operation, and high gold extraction rate. This conventional cyanidation method is one of the more widely used methods in the gold cyanidation process.
More2016-3-30 Intensive cyanidation is proven that gives high recoveries from gravity gold concentrates-this was achieved by either a high-speed agitator in a tank or by vat leaching. Both methods had their problems due either to excessive wear and high energy requirement for the agitated systems or channelling of solution and loss of

More2015-12-8 The cyanidation experiments were carried out in a tumble bottle at ambient temperature under different conditions including pH of 10–11.5, solids content of 30–45%, sodium cyanide concentration of 500–900 ppm, particle size of 37–100μm and leaching
MoreThe copper-citrate-thiosulfate system has some advantages over cyanidation, such as green, nontoxic and shorter leaching time, although a high leaching temperature above 70 °C is usually required to an acceptable gold extraction. Obviously, the system still needs to be further developed to ensure its commercial viability.
More2019-11-1 Cyanidation is the main process in gold leaching. There are several parameters that affect gold recovery and cyanide consumption. In this paper, the effect of the oxidative pretreatment and lead nitrate addition on the cyanidation of Zarshuran refractory gold ore containing 3.32 ppm Au, 1.09% As, and 0.5% sulfur were investigated. Au recovery was increased from 79.4% to 89.4% in the presence ...

More2012-10-4 After 24 hours, direct cyanide leaching of the initial ore resulted in only 54.8% gold recovery. However, cyanidation after dissolving the ore sample in hydrochloric acid (HCl), sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4), ferric chloride (FeCl 3) and nitric acid (HNO 3), re-spectively, increased the gold recovery to 98.1%. This shows that the ore is a sulfide
