fitted with carbon retention screens and the CIP tanks are eliminated. Carbon is added in leach so that the gold is adsorbed onto carbon almost as soon as it is dissolved by the cyanide solution. The CIL process is frequently used when native carbon is present in the gold ore. This native carbon will adsorb the leached gold and prevent its

The carbon in the reactor into which pregnant pulp is fed (referred to as the first reactor) becomes highly loaded with gold. Loaded carbon values on operating plants range from 300 to 20 000 grams of gold per ton of carbon, a concen-trating factor of about 1 000–1 500. A portion of the loaded carbon is periodically removed from the first

The carbon is then removed by screening, across a carbon screen, allowing the liquid and finely ground ore (-100 mesh) to pass through easily, and retaining the carbon on the screen. The carbon is then generally subjected to a heated solution (200 deg to 250 deg F) of (1%) sodium hydroxide and (0.1%) cyanide and the gold is re-dissolved and

A refractory gold ore is an ore that has ultra fine gold particles disseminated throughout its gold occluded minerals. These ores are naturally resistant to recovery by standard cyanidation and carbon adsorption processes. These refractory ores require pre-treatment in order for cyanidation to be effective in recovery of the gold

Leaching dissolves the gold out of the ore using a chemical solvent. The most common solvent is cyanide, which must be combined with oxygen in a process known as carbon-in-pulp. As the cyanide and oxygen react chemically, gold in the pulp dissolves. When workers introduce small carbon grains to the tank, the gold adheres to the carbon

of the individual gold particles in the ore. Relatively coarse gold particles that are liberated from the gangue mineral phase by crushing and grinding are readily recovered by gravity techniques, because of the large difference in specific gravity between gold (SG 19.3) and most gangue minerals (SG 2 to 3)

Run-of-mine ore is crushed and ground, free gold is recovered in a gravity circuit and flotation is used to recover a sulphide concentrate. This is then oxidised using autoclaves, producing feed for conventional carbon-in-pulp cyanide leaching to recover the contained gold. Low-grade stockpile and open pit ore are crushed using a gyratory crusher

Gold is adsorbed onto the activated carbon. The filtrate is then sent to the elution vessel, V-401, where the elution process begins. The gold is eluted into a water solution from the carbon by the American-Anglo Research Laboratories (AARL) method, leaving the barren carbon behind. Figure 5 shows the carbon adsorption and AARL elution processes. The loaded eluant, Stream 37
