The application of pressure oxidation (POX) followed by thiosulfate gold leaching is an efficient method used to extract gold from double refractory gold ores containing both sulfide and carbonaceous matter. This process is expected to result in high gold recovery rates, as it liberates gold from sulfides and eliminates the preg-robbing …

The process is characterized for its economic cost against the agitated leaching process when the ore deposit has a low gold content. Typically the process can process ores whose gold content is 0.8-1.1 g/t. The leaching solution is spread at the top of the pile and the pregnant solution will have to percolate through the pile.

To those of us in the gold industry, the question "What is heap leaching?" seems to have an obvious answer. In the simplistic sense, heap leaching involves stacking of metal-bearing ore into a heap on an impermeable pad, irrigating the ore for an extended period of time (weeks, months, or years) with a chemical solution to dissolve the sought …

Keywords: Hydrometallurgy; Leaching; Gold 1. INTRODUCTION Many gold ores are problematic as they contain metal sulfides, such as pyrite, arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite. These ores are often refractory, as the gold is encapsulated within the sulfide matrix. In order to recover the gold, the host matrix must be destroyed.

Traditionally, once gold ore is mined from the ground, it's crushed to a powder and passed through a series of tanks in a process called leaching. Cyanide is then used to separate the gold from the ore into the leached solution. With the new process, the leaching and recovery process is done with chloride, one of two elements in table salt.

Malononitrile was comparable to equal molar quantities of sodium cyanide in leaching gold from oxide ore and yielded 10–20 % higher recovery in leaching a refractory carbonaceous ore, although dissolution was slower with malononitrile than with cyanide (Heinen et al., 1970). Nitriles are also toxic, but they are far less harmful than cyanide.

For extracting gold from low-grade ores, heap leaching is practiced. The huge heaps described above are sprayed with a dilute solution of sodium cyanide, and this percolates down through the piled ore, dissolving the gold.
