Thiosulphate is an attractive alternative reagent to cyanide for processing gold ores. It is relatively cheap and non-toxic, forms relatively strong gold and silver complexes, and readily leaches gold ores in ammoniacal solutions, catalysed by Cu(II). It is particularly suited to carbonaceous ores where the recovery of gold by cyanide is poor.

The use of non–cyanide-leaching chemistries has been and continues to be considered for the processing of preg-robbing gold ores. Alternative lixiviants were reviewed in 2005 (Aylmore, 2005), and a promising alternative lixiviant appears to be thiosulfate leaching, which has been commercialized by Newmont (Aylmore, 2005) and more recently by ...

Since early 2001, Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines (KCGM) has successfully operated an ultra fine grinding (UFG) circuit to supplement its roaster capacity for the treatment of the refractory gold flotation concentrate. A second UFG mill was installed in 2002 taking the total UFG capacity to over 20tph while grinding to 11-12 microns and achieving over 90% gold recovery. A …

As time has worn on and people search for alternatives to gold ores, pyrite came under question. Using a technique called atom probe tomography (APT) in order to kind of "peel away" the molecules in the sample, gold was found to be hosted in tiny, hair-like faults in the crystal. In these tiny imperfections hides gold, but an industrial ...
