The cyanide leaching process is one of the main gold processing methods, which can be divided into agitation cyanide leaching and percolation cyanide leaching. Among them, the agitation cyanide leaching process mainly includes the cyanidation-zinc replacement process (CCD method and CCF method) and unfiltered …
A better alternative is to use models that adequately describe the rate of leaching of gold from a particular feed and the rate at which that gold loads onto activated carbon, and to derive optimum design criteria via an iterative process in which the impact of varying the plant design on metallurgical performance is examined.

The gold heap leaching process is often used to concentrate gold deposits with small ore bodies or low grades, or both, which cannot be developed and utilized by conventional methods. The main process is to crush low-grade gold ore to a certain particle size (or granulate), stock on a leak-proof bottom pad made of asphalt or plastic and other …

Although iodination gold leaching is a clean, non-toxic and efficient non-cyanide gold leaching process, it still has the problems of high reagents cost and difficult leaching solution treatment. To solve these problems, a process of iodination leaching-electrodeposition recovery was proposed.
The optimal pH for treating the cyanide leaching solution of this mercury containing gold mine using the sulfurization method was determined to be 10, the molar ratio of CN − to S 2− was 50:1, and the reaction time was 30 min. Ultimately, a mercury removal rate of over 99% was achieved, avoiding gold loss while reducing silver loss.
Currently, cyanide is the predominant lixiviant used to extract gold due to its strong complexation with gold and the technical simplicity of the leaching process …

After 48 h of leaching, it was discovered that thiosulfate has a better and quicker recovery of 91.54% over 61.70% of cyanide recovery. Tables and graphs are used to demonstrate thiosulfate's technical advantage over cyanide. As a result, this paper provides evidence regarding the Legadembi gold mine in Ethiopia's amenability to …
1. Introduction. The cyanidation method is the most widely used method for leaching gold from ore, which is determined by its simple process, low cost and mature technology (Hilson and Monhemius, 2006; Syed, 2006).However, it also has obvious shortcomings, such as cyanide is highly toxic, posing a serious threat to human health …
Hydrometallurgical gold recovery processes play a pivotal role in the gold mining industry, contributing to more than 90% of global gold production. Among the array of techniques available, the Merrill–Crowe process, adsorption, ion exchange, and solvent extraction are central in extracting gold from leach solutions. While the Merrill–Crowe …
In general, the cyanide gold leaching reaction rate is relatively slow, thus the kinetics of gold leaching with alternative lixiviants has not been a key concern. However, achieving fast gold leaching kinetics and high gold recovery with the alternative lixiviants is important (Hilson and Monhemius, 2006). Considerable effort has been made to ...
The most commonly used cyanide salts are KCN and NaCN, which are easily soluble in water. Cyanide leaching is the dominating process for gold recovery …
Figure 12(a) shows that the gold extraction rate increased along with the escalation of leaching time (0.5âˆ'4.0 h). The gold extraction rate reached 93.9% after leaching 4.0 h under the ultrasonic irradiation. In the conventional gold leaching process, the gold extraction rate was only 82.5% at the same leaching time.
The consumption of cyanide during processing operations is a major economic cost in the extraction of gold from its ores, while the discharge of cyanide …
The reactions that take place during the dissolution of gold in cyanide solutions under normal conditions have been fairly definitely established. Most agree that the overall cyanide equation for leaching …
Cyanide, an isoelectronic anion consisting of two atoms, C and N triply bonded with one (upsigma)-bond and two (uppi)-bonds, is a highly toxic and hazardous chemical compound that readily forms complexes and dissolves gold at a high dissolution rate [].However, the use of sodium and potassium cyanide in the gold leaching …
More than 83 per cent of the world's gold is extracted via cyanidation because of its convenient operation, low cost, and high leaching rate. However, cyanide has a high biological toxicity and poor leaching performance in refractory gold ores (containing copper and carbon) (Nunan et al., 2017, Nwaila et al., 2019).Hence, …
Besides, because the leaching process is completed in acidic medium, the corrosion to the equipment is relatively large. In recent years, research on the process of gold recovery using thiourea as non-cyanide gold recovery chemical has made great progress, and has gradually shifted from the experimental stage to the industrial …
It is well known that cyanide soluble copper dissolves in cyanide solutions to form toxic copper-cyanide complexes such as Cu(CN) 2 −, Cu(CN) 3 2 −, Cu(CN) 4 3 −.A number of studies have been published to treat gold-copper ores by either adding ammonia to the conventional cyanidation process, or recycling cyanide after the leaching stage …
