Gold cyanidation (also known as the cyanide process or the MacArthur–Forrest process) is a hydrometallurgical technique for extracting gold from low-grade ore by converting the gold to a water-soluble coordination complex. It is the most commonly used leaching process for gold extraction. [1]
Ammonium thiosulfate (ammonium thiosulphate in British English) is an inorganic compound with the formula [NH 4] 2 S 2 O 3. It is white crystalline solid with ammonia odor, readily soluble in water , slightly soluble in acetone and insoluble in ethanol and diethyl ether .
Sodium thiosulfate and ammonium thiosulfate have been proposed as alternative lixiviants to cyanide for extraction of gold from ores [8] and printed circuit boards. [9] The complex [Au(S 2 O 3) 2] 3-is assumed to be the principal product in such extractions. Presently cyanide salts are used on a large scale for that purpose with obvious risks. [8]
Thiosulfate (IUPAC-recommended spelling; sometimes thiosulphate in British English) is an oxyanion of sulfur with the chemical formula S 2 O 2− 3. Thiosulfate also refers to the compounds containing this anion, which are the salts of thiosulfuric acid , such as sodium thiosulfate Na 2 S 2 O 3 and ammonium thiosulfate (NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 3 .
Bioleaching is the extraction or liberation of metals from their ores through the use of living organisms.Bioleaching is one of several applications within biohydrometallurgy and several methods are used to treat ores or concentrates containing copper, zinc, lead, arsenic, antimony, nickel, molybdenum, gold, silver, and cobalt.
