A process for leaching gold and silver from ores and ore concentrates is disclosed using a cyanide leaching solution and hydrogen peroxide and maintaining an oxygen concentration of 2 to 20 Mg of O 2 /liter. In the invention, leaching takes place in the presence of decomposition catalysts and preferably the formed cyanocomplexes are separated during leaching from the leach solution.

Hydrogen peroxide is essential as a bleach in the textile industry and in processing used paper. It is also used in hydrometallurgical processes, for example in leaching gold. Hydrogen peroxide production today is part of the Chemicals Business Area of Evonik, one of the leading suppliers in the world.

Production of gold and uranium exemplifies some important hydrogen peroxide applications in the mining industry. Depending on the ore composition as well as the leaching conditions, utilization of hydrogen peroxide results in savings of eluents and acids, simplifies management of chemicals or waste and improves the overall process control.

Hydrogen peroxide is used in the mining industry for the extraction of precious metals such as gold, platinum, and palladium. Gold extraction from natural sources, including gold rocks and gold ores, can be done by leaching the gold concentrate or crushed gold rocks, in a solution of hydrogen peroxide and hydrochloric acid.

Already 75 years ago, it was found in batch experiments that hydrogen peroxide increases the gold extraction rate, but the results were not convincing enough: It was also found that hydrogen peroxide attacks the cyanide, a process which was developed over the last 10 years by Degussa to destroy cyanide in gold mine effluents.

The leaching of gold and silver in a pH modified glycine solution in the presence of hydrogen peroxide was investigated. It was found that this lixiviant system can dissolve gold and/or silver under neutral and alkaline conditions at ambient to moderately elevated temperatures (23–60 °C).

Sep 14, 2017· With even stronger hydrogen peroxide we can end up changing all of the fine gold foils to dissolved gold plating back onto the copper yet undissolved, with these stronger oxidizers in solution less heat is needed to oxidize the chlorides to chlorine, with HCl and 30% H2O2 hydrogen peroxide we can dissolve gold in just a warm solution, in this ...

Peroxide assisted leach process (PAL) The intention of the process is to introduce oxygen in a liquid form. As a result of intensive research work, it could be shown that hydrogen peroxide can be used as a source of oxygen in the leaching of gold ores.

This type of leaching is a better leaching procedure for recovery of gold and silver from PCB waste than the classical toxic cyanide leaching. 84 % Cu, 82 % Fe, 77 % Al, 76 % Zn, 70 % Ni, 90 % Pd, 88 % Pb and 83 % Sn recovery of the accompanying metals was achieved, using sulphuric acid with hydrogen peroxide, sodium chloride and aqua regia.

The effect of hydrogen peroxide on gold leaching rates in alkaline cyanide solution is a matter of controversy and debate. Early studies indicated that the reduction of hydrogen peroxide on gold surfaces is kinetically hindered, and the dissolution rate of gold in oxygenfree solutions containing hydrogen peroxide is very slow.

Gold cyanidation (also known as the cyanide process or the MacArthurForrest process) is a hydrometallurgical technique for extracting gold from lowgrade ore by converting the gold to a watersoluble coordination complex. It is the most commonly used leaching process for gold extraction.

Aug 18, 2005· The hydrometallurgical leaching of native gold from goldbearing ores or the dissolution of gold metal during the recycling of electronic and precious metal scrap is performed every day using ...

gold leach rate initially increases then starts to decrease by extended the leaching time. As a comparison of gold leach rate from the glycine–peroxide system and a selected gold leach system in absence of cyanide and ammonia, it was found that the average rate of gold dissolution after six days of leaching at 75 C was 39 10 3 l

It is commonly used to start a leach if there isn''t any old copper chloride around. The risk of using hydrogen peroxide is that it will dissolve some gold too. Later on the gold will cement onto base metals as a fine black powder. Dissolving gold . Mixed with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen peroxide can dissolve gold just like chlorine. As a reducer

The leaching of gold using alkaline amino acids–hydrogen peroxide solutions at low concentrations has been studied. The application of alkaline amino acid–hydrogen peroxide system may offer an alternative and environmentally benign process for gold leaching, particularly in the context of leaching low grade gold ores in an insitu or in heap leach processes.

Vats usually do not contain much internal equipment, such as agitators, baffles hence aeration is limited and therefore oxygen which is important for gold dissolution. Hydrogen Peroxide is sometimes added in small amount in the vats leaching to add more oxygen.

shown that hydrogen peroxide can be used as a source of oxygen in the leaching of gold ores. To avoid side reactions, the following conditions must be applied: Hydrogen peroxide must be diluted before it is added to the pulp. The dosage of HZO, must be .

Assisted leaching using peroxide. Feb 18 2013. Comments Off. Gold dissolution using cyanide requires the presence of an oxidant and invariably the oxidant used is dissolved oxygen. In a typical CIL or CIP agitated leach operation the oxygen is provided by compressed air or oxygen addition. In heap leach operations the oxidant is usually the air ...
