After the leaching process is complete, the soluble gold must be concentrated and separated from the process slurry. The method of recovery of gold from the process slurry is by carbon adsorption. Adsorption is a term used to describe the attraction of a mineral compound to the surface of another material.

A process called "Cyanidation", or cyanide leaching, has been the dominant gold extraction technology since the 1970s. In this process sodium cyanide, in a dilute solution of ranging …
The roasting process effectively converts the contained sulfide minerals to SO 2 gas, and carbonaceous matter to CO 2 gas, thereby expelling both sulfur and carbon from the treated material and enabling subsequent conventional gold cyanidation leaching of the mineral residue (Fernández et al., 2000). The roasting of ores containing ...
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 …
This indicates about 22.8% of the gold is lost undissolved in the leaching process if the Thiosulfate leaching process remains un-optimized with rigorous test works to counter this loss.
The process design of gold leaching and carbon-in-pulp circuits contaminants. These are removed by thermal regeneration of the eluted carbon, typically in a rotary kiln at temperatures of 650–750°C. Regeneration is carried out in a steam atmosphere to minimize carbon degradation due to oxidation.
The Chemistry of Gold Extraction is an extensively revised and comprehensively updated edition of the well-known reference first published in 1992. It provides the broad base of knowledge that is now required by all those working in the gold extraction and gold processing industries. The book bridges the gap between research and industry by emphasizing the practical applications …
Leaching is a heterogeneous process, involving three reaction steps: Diffusion of solvent through the pores in the solid particles, and of the dissolved substance outwards after …
The environmental hazards and toxicity of cyanide have increased the interest in a new cyanide-free gold process (Aylmore, 2005).The typical challenges related to the new development-stage cyanide-free gold processes are related to the high costs of chemicals, selectivity for gold leaching, and final gold recovery from the solutions (Hilson and Monhemius, …
Iodine gold leaching can be a promising alternative to cyanide leaching because of its low volatility and hazardousness . The process presents high leaching rates and the formed gold iodide complexes are more stable in …
Extracting gold from the mined rock is a complex process. From the time that the ore hoisted from underground and enters the processing plant, it takes up to five days before the process of smelting into gold bars can commence. ... The slurry is pumped to the leaching circuit which consists of a series of agitated tanks. The agitation ensures ...
Gold leaching is a critical step in the extraction of gold from ore. This process involves dissolving the gold contained in the ore using a chemical solvent, typically cyanide, which forms a ...
Baghalha investigated a gold ore leaching process using the chloride -hypochlorite system, at room temperature assessing the effect of the Ca(OCl) 2 and NaOCl concentrations. It was proposed that, the calcium hypochlorite produced a gold leaching kinetic three times as slow as what was observed for sodium hypochlorite. Hasab ...
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 behavior of carbonaceous matter. …
