Gold cyanidation

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..

Merrill Crowe Refining Furnace SO2 Scrubber

Gold and silver precipitate (concentrate) is the product of the Merrill-Crowe process. Furnaces are then used to recover ingots from smelting Merrill-Crowe precipitate. Fluxes are mixed with the precipitate to bring impurities to the surface. The precious metals settles down and can then be easily removed. Get price

This paper presents an economic study comparing two gold recovery processes, zinc precipitation (Merrill-Crowe) and carbon-in-pulp (CIP). Capital, operating, and gold losses costs from an actual CIP plant study are compared to costs developed from a hypothetical Merrill-Crowe process flowsheet.

Merrill

Jan 02, 2018Charles Kubach, Mine-Engineer.Com. 2 January, 2018. The Merrill-Crowe process has been around since the early 1900's, when it was discovered that when a cyanide-gold solution had the dissolved oxygen reduced to 1 part per million, gold readily precipitated from solution, as the CN has a stronger attraction to zinc than gold, so it drops the gold and attaches to the zinc, leaving CN-Zn and Get price
