Request an estimate1 What Is Refractory Gold Ore With the development of beneficiation technology the definition of refractory gold ore is changing Generally speaking refractory gold ore in leaching field is a kind of ore whose leaching rate of gold is less than 80 when directly processed by
PRESSURE OXIDATION OF REFRACTORY GOLD ORES: THE METATES GOLD PROJECT EXPERIENCE By followed by cyanide leach and the leaching of gold and copper sulfides for many years it is simple to configure and has relatively easy control features In this system cool quench liquor is fed to the autoclave compartments on

Refractory gold ore is generally defined as ore containing gold which cannot be satisfactorily recovered by conventional methods used to treat non refractory gold ores like gravity concentration or cyanidation Cause The refractory nature of these ores can be attributed to the presence of substances that consume the cyanide reagent before it can dissolve the gold preferentially adsorb

Double refractory gold ores such as Barrick’s Goldstrike ore contain both pyrite and carbonaceous matter and the latter results in the loss of gold from solution during cyanide leaching One possible remedy is to roast the ore and thus oxidize the pyrite and remove the organic carbon

The Problem of Refractory Ores Refractory gold ores are generally defined as those ores that do not give economical recoveries in conventional cyanide circuits where the ore has been ground to around 53 to 75 microns There are several reasons as to why an ore may be refractory

Randgold utilised MMSA’s expertise when developing a number of mines across Africa where the majority of the gold in the ore deposits was in the sulphides and refractory by nature These reserves were not large enough to justify pressure oxidation or bacterial leaching and the deposits were all situated in remote areas of Africa

Gold ores can be broadly categorized as free milling and refractory depending on their response to cyanide leaching (La Broy 1994 Gunyanga et al 1999) A gold recovery of 90 can be readily achieved with a conventional cyanide leaching of free milling ores (Rubisov et al 1996) However refractory gold ores are often
