The cyanide process, which is also known as the Macarthurforest process, is widely used in extracting gold or silver from the ores by dissolving them in a dilute solution of potassium cyanide or sodium cyanide This process Trans Nonferrous Met Soc China 25(2015) 1286Ã1297 Characterization of an iron oxy/hydroxide (gossan type) bearing refractory gold and silver ore by diagnostic leaching Oktay CELEP, Vedat SERBEST Hydromet B&PM Group, Division of Mineral & Coal Processing, Department of Mining Engineering, Karadeniz Technical University, Characterization of an iron oxy/hydroxide (gossan type) bearing
Investigation of the cyanide leaching optimization for ultrafine
It is well known that cyanide leaching of gold–silver ore has been an accepted process in the world In the current study, UFG was proposed as a pretreatment method prior to cyanide leaching of a gold–silver ore First, the ore was crushed and ground by jaw, cone crusher, and ring mill, respectively wet stirred ball mill,Cyanidation of stephanite and pyrargyrite produced very low dissolutions of silver, only 126% and 104%, respectively, in the absence of lead nitrate Silver extraction from stephanite improved to 98% by adding lead nitrate directly to the leaching stage, whereas pyrargyrite required a pretreatment with lead nitrate to extract 832% AgAdvances in the cyanidation of silver SpringerLink
