The gold in pregnant leach solution can then be recovered by activated carbon adsorption or zinc dust cementation (Marsden and House, 2006). The production of gold from refractory gold ores receives increasing attention due to the rapid diminution of "easy-to-treat", free milling gold ores, which allow high gold recoveries.
contain considerable amounts of base metal sulphides. Alkaline pre-aeration is the major option to treat semi-refractory sulphide ores (La Brooy and Komosa, 1992). Pre-aeration reduces the oxygen demand during cyanidation by passivating the surface of pyrrhotite by transforming Fe(II) to Fe(III), which reacts sluggishly with cyanide.
Gold particles in an ore deposit will vary in size from large nuggets to particles locked in the crystal lattice of sulfide minerals. These sulfide minerals are referred to as gold carrier minerals and contain trace to minor amounts of gold (Taggart, 1927, Chryssoulis and Cabri, 1990).Often it is found that gold ores are refractory due to the …
The processing of low-grade gold ores is largely made possible through the use of the cyanide leaching process. The goal of any leaching process is to selectively bring a desired mineral into solution in order to ...

Effects of lead nitrate (200-500 g/t Pb(NO3)2) and pre-aeration (24 h) before cyanide leaching at 1.5-3.5 g/L NaCN were investigated. ... [Show full abstract] parameters on the sulfide heap ...
The leaching behaviour of a sulphide gold-silver ore was investigated in terms of a relationship between gold and silver extractions and cyanide consumption. 95.0% Au and 88.0% Ag extractions were obtained under the determined conditions as 24h leaching duration, -74 µm particle size, 40% solids ratio, 4 g/L NaCN concentration, and 450 rpm …

Previous studies ( Lia et al., 2006;Li et al., 2009) have confirmed the benefits of pre-oxidation/aeration on subsequent cyanide leaching of gold ores. Sceresini (2005) also reported that the ...
Biooxidation of sulfidic refractory gold ores Rupert Kirchner, BSc Paper conducted in November 2015 Abstract The past years have confirmed that Biooxidation is a viable technology which is used commercially to treat certain refractory sulfide gold concentrates. ... The aeration of the solution is a major factor of capital and operating expenses ...
A laboratory method was developed to evaluate the effect of oxygen on the cyanidation of non-refractory gold ores. Eight North American ores were tested. Measurements during the pre-aeration step included oxygen consumption and efficiency, and rate of oxidation as a function of the initial dissolved oxygen.
sulfide minerals are present in gold ores.4 Common sulfide minerals associated with gold ores are pyrite, pyrrhotite, marcasite, copper sulfides, and arsenopyrite. The presence of sulfide minerals has a ... oxidation in an alkaline pre-aeration process, asso-ciated with the addition of soluble salts of lead. Special …
These types of gold sulphidic ores may be pre-treated prior to cyanidation by means of an oxidation step, converting the sulphides into oxides or sulphates. This treatment leads to a reduction in the consumption of dissolved oxygen and of cyanide in the cyanidation step and to an improvement in the metallurgical recovery. In the current …
Pre-aeration of the concentrate improved the gold and silver extractions by 4-14% and 23-44% at the subsequent cyanide leaching (1.5-3.5 g/L NaCN). However, it did not affect the leaching of copper.
The gold cyanidation process is the most important method ever developed for extracting gold from its ores. The reasons the widespread acceptance of. ... Lime is added during the pre-aeration. Trouble occurred in the large silica content in gold precipitate. This was caused either by the zinc precipitating the silicia from solution or …
For Test 4 (oxygen in pre-aeration and cyanidation) the final dissolution was 3.8% higher than the average of Tests 1 and 3 (air in pre-aeration and cyanidation). The gold dissolution for Test 2 (pre-aeration with oxygen, cyanidation with air) is similar to the dissolution with air used in both steps (Tests 1 and 3). TABLE 4 .
Assesment of Ammoniacal Ammonium Sulphate Leachins as a Pretreatment Process for Copper Bearing Gold Ores
Copper-gold Ores And Mixed Sulphide Ores Since cyanide leaching of gold bearing copper ores and porphry copper ores, which usually contain only small quantities of gold, e.g. 0.5 g/t, is uneconomic, these are treated so as to yield a bulk copper-gold concentrate which is fed to smelters [41,42]. ... or pretreated is of great importance in the ...
Cyanidation is the main process in gold leaching. There are several parameters that affect gold recovery and cyanide consumption.
