The use of thiosulfate to extract gold from refractory ores is promising because of its non-toxicity and high selectivity. Sulfide minerals (i.e., pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite), major gold carriers in refractory gold ores, however, hinder gold extraction due to the high consumption of a lixiviant. In this study, a new method to improve gold extraction from sulfide …

Cyanidation is the most commonly used method for the recovery of gold from its ores. Generally, the dissolution of gold is carried out in a solution containing 0.03–0.1% (CN) − with a pH greater than 10 and aeration to keep the solution saturated with oxygen . Gold extraction efficiency in cyanidation technique is typically 90%, even in ...

Endogenetic gold ores include vein and lode deposits of elemental gold in quartzite or mixtures of quartzite and various iron sulfide minerals, particularly pyrite (FeS 2) and pyrrhotite (Fe 1-x S). When present in sulfide ore bodies, the gold, although still elemental in form, is so finely disseminated that concentration by methods such as those applied to alluvial gold is impossible.
