This process demands a clarified and de-aerated liquor. Today, modern practice utilizes Activated Carbon to strip the gold from solution. This process, known as Carbon-in-Pulp or Carbon-in-Leach can replace the expensive dewatering steps required of conventional methods. Gold is extracted from the carbon using elution with the eluant treated by ...
Carbon in Leach vs Carbon in Pulp: Carbon-in-pulp (CIP) is the sequential leach then absorption of gold from ore. During the CIP stage, pulp flows through several …
Counter-current flow with carbon particles, Q s: ... The Carbon-in-leach process is a counter-current leaching-adsorption process. The slurry containing ore, lime and cyanide enters the CIL circuit from the first tank and carbon enters from the last tank. The concentration of gold in the solution is observed to decrease across the tanks due to ...

Carbon-in-Leach (CIL) is similar to the CIP process but differs in the method of carbon addition. In the CIL process, activated carbon is added directly to the leach tanks, where it adsorbs gold ...
Heap Leaching Flow Chart Incorporating Agglomeration into the Heap Leaching Process. The agglomeration of the fines in the heap leaching process allows for enhanced, even percolation of a heap. If left untreated, smaller fines can accumulate in the spaces between larger particles, inhibiting flow of the leaching solution (see figure 2).

Precious Metal Heap Leach Design and Practice Daniel W. Kappes1 ABSTRACT Heap leaching of gold and silver ores is conducted at approximately 120 mines worldwide. Heap leaching is one of several alternative process methods for treating precious metal ores, and is selected primarily to take advantage of its low capital cost relative to other methods.
The chemistry of the leaching process revolves around oxidation of the uranium compounds, which is typically achieved using manganese dioxide (MnO 2), sodium chlorate (NaClO 3), and Fe(II) salts. Equation (ref{23.3.1a})- (ref{23.3.1c}) shows a typical reaction pathway for the acid leaching process using sulfuric acid.
