Leach solution containing dissolved minerals are then collected, processed in a factory process to recover the mineral targets. In heap leaching using carbon adsorption techniques in column Carbon (CIC) in which the solution containing the gold complex flows
Heap leaching is an industrial mining process used to extract precious metals, copper, uranium, and other compounds from ore using a series of chemical reactions that absorb specific minerals and reseparate them after their division from other earth materials. Similar to in situ mining, heap leach mining differs in that it places ore on a liner, then adds the chemicals via drip systems to the
Flow of lixiviant through heap leach materials should occur as unsaturated flow under the rate of lixiviant application chosen by the operator.

Figure 1 is a simplified flow diagram of the gold heapleach process. 2 . Figure 1. Generalized flow of a gold heapleach operation. Dashed lines represent additions, if necessary. Some operations use runofmine ore. 3 Ore Preparation and Placement Oxidized ores, which are usually extracted during surface mining, are the most common type of ore leached and are the most amenable to heapleach
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 is the most commonly used leaching process for gold extraction.. Production of reagents for mineral processing to recover gold, copper, zinc and silver represents

Selection of the type of leach pad, detailed pad . design, liner selection, construction techniques, and assessment of geotechnical risks are all part of the overall leach pad development process
A blockflow diagram of a typical CIP plant for a nonrefractory gold ore is shown in Figure 2. Table I and Table II illustrate the capital and operating cost breakdowns for a typical South African gold plant. These figures are not a standard but reflect the nature of the ore and the design basis for a particular situation.

Gold is removed from the ore with a conventional carbon in pulp cyanidation circuit. Typical gold recoveries exceed 95 %.
For heap leach operation, gold cyanide is extracted from pregnant leach liquors onto carbon in a series of columns, by upflowing leach solution through columns that are packed with carbon. The process is known as carbonincolumns (CIC). For mill, agitatedtank leaching operations, gold is extracted directly from the leached pulp in either a carboninleach (CIL), or a carboninpulp (CIP
Gold recovery using the heapleach method is based on the process of applying a leachate that usually contains about 100 to 600 parts per million (ppm) ( to percent) NaCN in a waterbased solution to a large pile of crushed or runofmine rock and, occasionally, mill tailings (Hoye, 1987; van
