Biooxidation Pretreatment Cyanide Leaching of a Flotation Gold Concentrate

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study reached a gold ore which contain 3.83g/t gold, to investigate the available gold recover methods, direct cyanide leaching test and “biooxidation-cyanide” leaching process were utilized after enrich gold by flotation. When regrinding the flotation concentrate to 95% -325mm, the leaching rate of “biooxidation-cyanide” leaching reached 94.47%, compare with direct leaching, the leaching rate increased almost 67%. Obviously bacterium oxidation is a useful pretreatment for gold leaching.
