If there is more than 24 hours of intensive leaching time, then perhaps the leaching conditions need to be optimised e.g. higher DO, more cyanide, etc. or perhaps a regrind before intensive leaching (coarse gold would be flattened (greater surface area), while the surfaces of composited gold (e.g. between pyrite crystals) would be made more ...
In the intensive cyanidation of gravity gold concentrates, sodium m-nitrobenzene sulfonate (NBS) is often used to supplement dissolved oxygen as the oxidant in the process. A previous paper presented the results of a largely electrochemical study of the behaviour of NBS during cyanidation of gold.
small bleed solution is also produced carrying trace amounts of gold which can be recovered via a dedicated electro winning cell. The intensive cyanidation flow sheet shown in figure 3 includes ILR, electro winning cell and bleed solution electro winning cell. Intensive cyanidation4 of a gravity concentrate typically gives leach recoveries of ...
The document summarizes the Batch Inline Leach Reactor (ILR) technology for intensive cyanidation of high-grade gold concentrates produced by gravity separation methods. The ILR maintains the advantages of a rolling drum for intensive leaching while simplifying the equipment to a rolling drum, two tanks, and a single pump. Intensive cyanidation using …
Intensive cyanidation is proven technology that gives high recoveries from gravity gold concentrates-this was achieved by either a high-speed agitator in a tank or by vat …
Keywords: Gold cyanidation; Leaching; Reaction kinetics; Modeling The chemistry of gold dissolution in alkaline cyanide solution has continually received attention and new rate equations expressing the gold leaching are still developed. The effect of leaching parameters on gold cyanidation is studied in this
Usually the kind of gold ores containing sulphidic minerals – depending on the sulphide content and mineralogy – can be pre-treated by oxidation steps prior to cyanidation, converting the sulphides to oxides or sulphates, in some cases enhancing the opening up of the ore. Experts in the field propose that pre- oxidation is used for two reasons: (i) to …
It involves the leaching out of the gold into solution, using a strong cyanide mix, and then the electrowinning of that solution so as to recover the gold on the steel …
A flow sheet has been developed to treat a high tonnage highly preg-robbing gold ore. The ore is low grade and fine grained with a high proportion of very fi ne free gold. The key components of the flow sheet include gravity, flotation, intensive cyanidation with direct electrowinning, and carbon-in-leach of the flotation concentrate. The circuit produces a …
In the intensive cyanidation of gravity gold concentrates, sodium m-nitrobenzene sulfonate (NBS) is often used to supplement dissolved oxygen as the oxidant in the process. A previous paper presented the results of a largely electrochemical study of the behaviour of NBS during cyanidation of gold. The results confirmed that NBS acts as …
Gold concentrates are produced at many mines by a variety of centrifugal and gravity machines, such as Knelson and Falcon concentrators, however the subsequent recovery of gold is relatively inefficient and subject to security problems. ...

Gold Rooms: Tabling and Intensive Cyanidation. Primary concentrators produce a gold concentrate stream that is too low in grade for direct smelting. The use of secondary concentration to further upgrade the concentrate is required. Throughout the world, it is most common for gold to leave site in the form of gold bars smelted and …
The history and development of the process of intensive cyanidation of gold-containing products in world practice is shown. The prospects of using this method in the Republic of Kazakhstan are shown.
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 …
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 wastes may result in significant environmental pollution. Many factors influence the levels of consumption and discharge of cyanide, including ore mineralogy and lixiviant solution …
Studies on the intensive cyanidation of gold-bearing gravity concentrate are carried out in a conical type ap-paratus. The process takes place in presence of 1.5 kg/t and 3.0 kg/t of …
Alchemists—driven by greed and curiosity—did not manage to produce gold from cheap materials, but they certainly initiated and advanced chemical knowledge. The discovery of aqua regia by the Arab alchemist Jabir …

Copper gold ores often have complex mineralogical and chemical characteristics, demanding innovative and complex processing solutions. The extension of Gekko System's intensive cyanidation technology to gold copper concentrates gives operators a new processing option for these materials. Gekko Systems specialises in the design, …

The chemistry of gold dissolution in alkaline cyanide solution has continually received attention and new rate equations expressing the gold leaching are still developed.
In industrial gold mining, the introduction of more efficient cyanidation methods in the second half of the twentieth century dramatically improved value-to-volume ratios, which in turn cleared the way for a broader shift from labor-intensive underground mining to 'low-grade, super-large, high-tonnage, and ultra-mechanized' open-pit mining ...
