The Mercury Problem in Artisanal Gold Mining. Mercury-based artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) causes more mercury pollution than any other human activity. 1 In this practice, mercury metal is used to extract gold from ore as a stable amalgam. The amalgam is then heated to evaporate the mercury and isolate the gold.
Free-Milling Gold. Gold ore is considered free-milling when over 90% of the gold can be recovered by a conventional gravity-cyanidation process with low reagent consumptions at a grind size of 80% passing 75 µm. Some examples of free-milling gold ores include quartz-veined deposits and oxidized ores. Sulfide-Associated Gold
