Rose and Newman's very comprehensive book, The Metallurgy of Gold, does not even contain the term refractory in its latest, fourth edition (1937). 1 Dorr and Bosqui's Cyanidation and Concentration of Gold and Silver (2d edition, 1950) has a brief chapter (XIII) on "Cyanicides and Refractory Ores," with only four pages devoted to ...
For free-milling ores exhibiting a high gold recovery at a reasonably coarse grind size and with average oxygen and cyanide consumptions, the engineer is faced …
One of the more common classes of ores containing gold is when gold is associated with pyrite, pyrrhotite, and arsenopyrite. This is the area of gold recovery that has probably received the most research …
The extraction of gold from refractory gold ores (RGOs) without side reactions is an extremely promising endeavor. However, most RGOs contain large amounts of sulfide, such as pyrite. Thus, investigation of the influence of sulfide on the gold leaching process is important to maximize the utilization of RGOs. In this work, the effects of …

The technological processing flowsheet for gold-bearing ores varies widely. The choice of a particular technological flowsheet depends on several factors, including the nature of the gold in the ore, especially its size and chemical composition, the nature of the minerals associated with the gold, the presence of other valuable …
Figure 1. Schematic diagram of: (A) physically locked gold in gangue mineral; (B) chemically locked gold in pyrite interstitial lattice site (Asamoah etal. 2014; Chen et al. 2014). ... The microwave process has been reported as an alternative for the roasting process in the processing of gold ores. The process has many advantages, such as ...
The gold-pyrite association is dependent on ore grade and textural features of the ore. When present with pyrite, arsenopyrite commonly will have significantly higher gold grades than the pyrite associations. ... The flow sheet of the process is illustrated in Figure 5. The Albion Process was developed by a MIM subsidiary, Hydrometallurgical ...
The flowsheet showed the results obtained from testing a complex lead-zinc-copper-iron ore containing values in gold. Exceptionally high grade and recovery were obtained in this instance. Utilizing a …
on process selection, flowsheet development, recovery improvement and reagent consumption optimization. ... In gold ores, pyrite and arsenopyrite often occur in three morphological types: coarse, porous (blastic) and fine-grained. Framboidal and microcrystalline pyrite are also
Gold mining uncovers more and more hydrothermal deposits in which gold mineralization is associated with sulfides and other compounds of base metals, arsenic, antimony, or tellurium. This type of mineralization frequently makes gold recovery difficult by conventional techniques, such as amalgamation, gravity separation, or direct …

Directions for future research in processing refractory gold ores has been stated. Schematic diagram of physically locked gold in pyrite, quartz and/or iron oxide. Modified after Ellis (2003)
Pyrite geochemistry is crucial for the discrimination of the types of ore-forming fluids in gold deposits, such as metamorphic–hydrothermal fluids and magmatic–hydrothermal fluids. With the assistance of supervised machine learning algorithms, this application can be leveraged maximally. Here, laser ablation inductively …

A complete process of gold recovery from sulfide refractory gold ore was proposed. •. The recovery efficiency of Au was increased by adding pyrite during the …
Selecting the preferred process for the treatment of a refractory gold ore or concentrate involves a number of aspects including the metallurgical and mineralogical characteristics of the ore, any impurities, the size and location of the project, local conditions and regulations, and utility requirements.
Refractory gold ores commonly contain free gold, submicroscopic gold, carbonaceous material, base metals, pyrite, marcasite, arsenopyrite, and pyrrhotite, with clays and graphitic carbon known to inhibit flotation behavior (Swash 1925). The Carlin refractory gold ores are mainly associated with arsenian pyrite, which is known to …
from a gold-pyrite ore at a pH of 4.5 while ... particle size for the cyanidation process, where a gold recovery rate of 90.51% was achieved at ambient temperature with a solid percentage of 30% ...
The majority of gold processing plants currently handle ores containing sulfide minerals. Gold in such ores is par-tially associated with sulfides and partially in a free state. Ores of this type are in most cases classified as refractory. The raw material for gold recovery is the gravity-flotation concentrate of ore enrichment.
Cyanidation as applied to ordinary gold and silver ores is a relatively simple process. When cyanicides {cyanide-consuming elements) are encountered in small amounts in the treatment of such ores, the various schemes already discussed, such as use of a lead salt or wasting barren solution, can usually be resorted to and successful …
Hydrothermal This type contains a variety of ores, including(a) gold-pyrite ores, (b) gold-copper ores, (c) gold-polymetallic ores and (d) gold oxide ore, usually upper zone of sulphide zones. The pyrite content of the ore varies from 3% to 90%. Other common waste minerals are quartz, aluminosilicates, dolomite etc.
The technological processing flowsheet for gold-bearing ores varies widely. The choice of a particular technological flowsheet depends on several factors, including …
Process flowsheet Simulation-based life cycle analysis was used to assess the environmental footprint of direct gold leaching from refractory ores in more aggressive cupric chloride solutions. The modeled direct cupric chloride leaching flowsheet (Figure 1) is based on the process developed by Outotec (Miettinen et al. 2013) and
2. The Extraction Processes of Gold-Pyrite Ore. The treatment principle of gold-pyrite ore is to separate the sulfide from the gangue and dissolve the gold in the cyanide solution. In order to remove antimony, arsenic, carbon and other substances that absorb fluoride, roasting treatment is required before cyanidation. There're 4 extraction ...
