Alternatives to cyanide in the gold mining industry

Its consumption in gold processing is high; and (3) The gold recovery step requires more development. Reagent consumption is exceedingly high because thiourea is readily oxidised in solution, and as Presad et al. [18] implies, the high costs attached to leaching are likely due to the thiourea process still being in an infancy stage. Past ...

Using life cycle assessment to evaluate some

Gold differs from most other metals in that the majority of the metal that has ever been mined is still in use. It has been estimated that about 15% of all gold ever mined was used in dissipative industrial applications or is unaccounted for or unrecoverable, leaving about 85% (i.e. between 133,000 and 153,000 t – see later) still in use and …

Processing centres in artisanal gold mining

Abstract. The aim of this paper is to reflect on efforts made worldwide to construct processing centres where artisanal miners can visit to have gold extracted from ore "free" or for a nominal fee.
