They were issued patents for their process in 1887 (Britain) and in 1889 (United States). The extraction is based on the agitation of finely ground gold ore in aerated potassium cyanide solution. Metals in the ore, including gold, complex with cyanide during the agitation. The gold cyanide complex is precipitated with zinc …

Introduction to Gold and Silver Leaching The cyanide leaching process is the most important method ever developed for extracting gold from its ores. The early development of the process is attributed to a Scotchman, John Stewart Mac Arthur, in collaboration with the Forrest brothers. The method was introduced into South Africa in …

Better selectivity was observed when using LIX 79 and tridecanol at 10 and 5 vol.-%, respectively. Stripping gold from the loaded organic was carried out at pH > 12, using NaOH and NaCN solutions [8]. This work evaluates the continuous operation of gold extraction from cyanide liquors by using a pilot plant solvent extraction unit.

Cyanide's efficiency makes mining more wasteful. Because cyanide leaching is very efficient, it allows profitable mining of much lower ore grades. Mining lower grade ore requires the extraction and processing of much more ore to get the same amount of gold. Partially due to cyanide, modern mines are. much larger than before cyanide was used;

The quantity found in solution will furnish an estimate of how much lime will be needed for making up the cyanide extraction test. Generally, a residual strength of 0.05% CaO will indicate a suitable quantity of lime for an all-gold ore, and 0.1% for a silver or silver-gold ore.

1. Background. For the past 100 years, the key element in the processing of gold ore has been the cyanidation process.Over the years, steady improvements have occurred in equipment design; milling has evolved from stamp mills, through tube mills and ball mills to the large semiautogenous grinding (SAG) and fully autogenous grinding …

When a pilot scale testing is possible, we can confirm many design parameters and flowsheet options. A big plant will determine the effect of a gravity circuit on the plant gold distribution. In this way, the gravity circuit must improve the plant payment for gold. The method of handling gravity concentrate is plant dependent.
