Sulphide Gold Ore Treatment by Leaching and Flotation

Problem with gold recovery from sulphide ore: How may a mill get the maximum recovery of gold from a sulphide ore, at the least capital cost and at the same time obtain the highest net return.This latter point is most important. In many cases a gold mill using an all-cyanide flowsheet with fine grinding of all the ore will report very low gold content in the tailings …

Then the gold is extracted from the sulfide by methods such as calcination or cyanidation. Sulfides are mostly coarse-grained in sulfide gold ore, with a specific gravity of 4.9-5.2, which has a significant difference in specific gravity from the associated gangue. Therefore, it is completely feasible to recover sulfide ore by the gravity ...

Processing technologies for gold-telluride ores

The presence of gold telluride minerals may render an ore refractory, the extent of this depends on the telluride mineral present and the mineralogical association [3]. Gold, silver, and gold/silver-telluride minerals in ores dissolve more slowly than native gold in cyanide solutions, which results in less efficient gold extraction [4].

Calcination or Roasting of Ores

The object of calcining or roasting certain ores before treatment is to dissipate the sulphur or sulphides of arsenic, antimony, lead, etc., which are inimical to treatment, whether by ordinary mercuric amalgamation or lixiviation. The effect of the roasting is first to sublimate and drive off as fumes the sulphur and a proportion of the objectionable metals. What is left is either iron oxide ...
