With the rising gold prices in recent years, it further stimulated the rapid development of gold industry. As the exhaustion of high-grade gold ore, researching on middle-low grade and refractory gold ore and strengthen the traditional gold mining process undoubtedly have become the main trend in global gold beneficiation industry.
The copper flotation circuits upgrade copper content by a factor of 80 160 times from feed to a saleable copper concentrate containing approximately 50% of the contained gold in feed (remaining gold is recovered both as a gravity product within the primary grinding circuit and also via leaching of a gold containing pyrite concentrate).
The alternatives considered for accelerating the concentrate leach kinetics were addition of air or oxygen, and Degussa Corporation's peroxide-assisted leaching (PAL) process. Air addition was tried, but only produced a voluminous froth which overflowed the leach tank, because of the presence of residual concentrations of flotation reagents.
(2) Extraction of gold by flotation process is also used to process polymetallic gold-bearing ores such as gold-copper, gold-lead, gold-bismuth, and gold-copper-lead-zinc-sulfur ore. For this type of ore, the flotation process can effectively identify and extract various gold-bearing sulfide concentrates, which is conducive to the comprehensive ...

Figure 6: Case Study 2 copper and gold leach kinetics The target sodium cyanide concentration was 2% and 518 kg/t was consumed by the concentrate. Case Study 3 – Gravity Concentrate 100 g of concentrate, grading 1,800 g/t gold and 4% copper, was leached in a rolling bottle. Figure 7 shows the gold and copper leach kinetics. Gold
Gold cyanidation (also known as the cyanide process or the MacArthur-Forrest process) is a hydrometallurgical technique for extracting gold from low-grade ore by converting the gold to a water-soluble coordination complex.It is the most commonly used leaching process for gold extraction.. Production of reagents for mineral processing to recover gold, copper, zinc and silver represents ...
The leaching feed in the study was a commercial flotation copper sulfide concentrate produced at the Lubin Concentrator (KGHM Polska Miedz S.A.). The concentrate contained copper and other metals, such as Zn, Co, Ni, Ag, V, and Mo, which significantly increase the value of this material. A continuously
If the gold can not be concentrated for smelting, then it is leached by an aqueous solution: . The cyanide process is the industry standard.; Thiosulfate leaching has been proven to be effective on ores with high soluble copper values or ores which experience preg-robbing: the absorption by carbonaceous components which preferentially absorbs gold and gold-cyanide complexes.
leaching circuits, even when the ore is finely ground. The cause of low gold recoveries can be either ... flotation where gold can be concentrated in a small mass pull and reduce size and cost of a plant (6). ... Attempts to improve gold recovery and reduce mass in the concentrate with NaSH and or copper sulphate addition were unsuccessful ...
Figure 1 - CESL Flowsheet for Processing Hg-rich Copper Concentrates Copper and mercury results at the continuous pilot scale confirmed those obtained in batch testing. Gold recovery from the pilot leach residue was also assessed with elemental sulphur flotation of the residue offering 85% recovery of the precious metals to the flotation ...
At Batu Hijau, ore containing copper and gold is crushed to a coarse size at the mine and then transported from the mine via conveyor to a concentrator, where it is finely ground and then treated by successive stages of flotation, resulting in a concentrate containing approximately 30% copper.

The slurry of gold-bearing leachate and solid residue leaving the leaching circuit contains in the range of 1–5 ppm gold and is directed to an RIP circuit, where gold and copper are loaded onto a strong-base resin to ∼1–5 kg/t Au and ∼10–25 kg/t Cu. Copper is eluted from the resin using ammonia thiosulfate (200 g/L) and gold is eluted ...
The bio-assisted leaching of flotation concentrate, produced in a copper mining in Brazil, was initiate with the use of micro-organisms present in the acid mining drainage collected directly in the aforementioned copper mine, besides an strain of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans bacteria.

All primary sulfide ores of copper sulfides, and most concentrates of secondary copper sulfides (being chalcocite), are subjected to smelting.Some vat leach or pressure leach processes exist to solubilise chalcocite concentrates and produce copper cathode from the resulting leachate solution, but this is a minor part of the market.. Carbonate concentrates are a relatively minor product ...
The gold leaching behaviour results are shown in Fig. 7. To distinguish between the role of surface area and other gold leaching rate-limiting factors, BET total surface area normalised and unnormalised leaching curves are shown. Rapid gold leaching was observed within the initial 2 h for all investigated samples but at different rates.
The sample taken for this test assayed originally 1.54 oz. gold and 0.28 oz. silver. The concentrate obtained by flotation assayed 4.92 oz. gold and 1.14 oz. silver.
