Activated carbon reduces fines formation and increases yield. A major use of activated carbon in mining is in gold recovery, where granular activated carbon (GAC) is used for adsorption of the gold-cyanide complex in carbon-in-pulp (CIP) and carbon-in-leach (CIL) systems, or in carbon-in-column (CIC) systems after a heap leach operation carbon.

Get PriceCarbon, as a media of recovery for gold from leach solutions, did not gain wide acceptance in the gold industry until the 1970's, with the explosion of heap leaching of vast quantities of low grade gold ores, and subsequent production of many gallons of pregnant leach solution.
Get PriceOrganic carbon is a common problem for base metal production and precious metal leaching. In froth flotation, liberated organic carbon is naturally hydrophobic and will be recovered with the other minerals, lowering the grade of the concentrates. It can also adsorb collectors and frothers, reducing the efficiency of the mineral recovery process. In leaching, the absorption properties can ...
Get PriceAs a result of the depressed gold price, there is a worldwide trend towards low-cost heap-leaching operations. Heap leaching provides relatively low-grade, clear solutions from which the gold has to be recovered. In practice, carbon-in-solution (CIS) is generally used for the upgrading of the gold.

In each, activated carbon is used to extract gold from the cyanide leach solution.
Get PriceCarbon-In-Pulp (CIP) In CIP, the ore is crushed and finely ground, and cyanide leached in a series of agitated tanks to solubilise the gold. The granular activated carbon is added to the leached slurry, where the carbon adsorbs the gold from the slurry solution and .

Plating solutions should be carbon-treated regularly to remove detrimental organic substances. The only viable gold plating solutions that are cyanide-
Get PriceGekko's electrowinning cell has been specifically designed to handle high silver-containing solutions and is highly recommended. Gekko also use OEM cells, when appropriate. For lower grade pregnant solutions, a resin-based, carbon-in-solution or zinc precipitation (Merril Crowe) process, as part of the overall flowsheet design, is suggested.

CSG's services for corporate clients spread from organizational and product oriented sustainability assessments over green marketing services to voluntary carbon .
Get PriceElemental carbon exists in several forms, each of which has its own physical characteristics. Two of its well-defined forms, diamond and graphite, are crystalline in structure, but they differ in physical properties because the arrangements of the atoms in their structures are dissimilar.A third form, called fullerene, consists of a variety of molecules composed entirely of carbon.

Get PriceThe gold cyanide complex is adsorbed onto the carbon until it comes to an equilibrium with the gold in solution. Because the carbon particles are much larger than the ore particles, the coarse carbon can then be separated from the slurry by screening using a wire mesh.
Get PriceA refractory ore generally contains sulfide minerals, organic carbon, or both. Sulfide minerals are impermeable minerals that occlude gold particles, making it difficult for the leach solution to form a complex with the gold. Organic carbon present in gold ore may adsorb dissolved gold-cyanide complexes in much the same way as activated carbon.
