#0183;#32;Cyanide leaching of two West African gold ores was studied in multiple laboratories to provide processengineering data for plant design purposes. Unusually slow leach extraction kinetics were observed using routine cyanide leach test procedures with pregnant solution monitoring. Carboninleach testing, however, showed normal rapid kinetic behavior, with the same ultimate gold extractions

Kinetics and Mechanism of Gold and Silver Dissolution In Cyanide Solution
#0183;#32;A paper published by L. Elsner in 1846 first correctly identified the chemical reaction that forms the basis of all gold cyanide leaching processes: 4 Au + 8 NaCN + O 2 + 2 H 2 O 4 Na [Au (CN) 2] + 4 NaOH The equation is well known, but the successful application of this reaction in a gold mining operation is rarely straightforward.
Calculations In Gold Cyanidation. 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
The theory of cyanidation processes is based on the laws of the kinetics of dissolution at inhomogeneous surfacesThe recovery rate of gold by the cyanidation of pulp ranges between 90 and 96 percent, using to 3 kg of sodium cyanide per ton and to 5 kg of protective alkali per ton.
The process of extracting gold from ore with cyanide is called cyanidation. The reaction, known as Elsner''s Equation, is: 4 Au + 8 CN+ O 2 + 2 H 2 O = 4 Au(CN) 2+ 4 OHAlthough the affinity of cyanide for gold is such that it is extracted preferentially, cyanide will also form complexes with other metals from the ore, including copper, iron
Published rate data based on chemical oxidation from flat gold surfaces in pure aerated cyanide solutions are analysed to show a reaction order of with respect to cyanide at low concentrations. At higher cyanide concentrations, the reaction rate reaches a limiting value of R Au(lim) = #215; 10 6 mol m 2 s 1, independent of the cyanide concentration and stirring rate.

Kinetics of the reaction of gold cyanidation in the In contrast to conventional gold cyanidation, when cyanidation takes place in the presence of a thallium (I) salt, the oxygen reduction yields hydroxide ions as a reduction product, and the rate of gold dissolution is four times faster.
developed. The effect of leaching parameters on gold cyanidation is studied in this work in order to optimize the leaching process. A gold leaching model, based on the wellknown shrinkingcore model, is presented in this work. It is proposed that the reaction takes place at the reacting particle surface which is continuously reduced as the reaction proceeds. The model parameters are estimated by
Abstract The heterogeneous kinetics of gold cyanidation in the presence of a thallium(I) salt, which is known to act as accelerator of the reaction, are described in this paper. The rate of gold dissolution in the conventional gold cyanidation decreases dramatically at pH values higher than The presence of thallium increases this maximum value of pH to over

The reactions that take place during the dissolution of gold in cyanide solutions under normal conditions have been fairly definitely established. Most agree that the overall cyanide equation for leaching and cyanidation of gold is as follows: 4 Au + 8 NaCN + O2 + 2 H20 = 4 NaAu(CN)2 + 4 NaOH
