alternative to cyanidation for some gold bearing ore bodies. Whether the leaching is performed in stirred tank reactors or heaps, the size and type of equipment needed for a thiosulphate leaching flowsheet is very similar to a conventional cyanide leach. SGS is a global technical leader in the field of thiosulphate leaching, and our

Iodine has never been a very popular choice for leaching gold, probably because of all the halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine), it ranks second to last in activeness. Iodine forms a very stable gold complex, but it's much more costly than chlorine, and has a loading capacity of only about half of an acidified chlorine ...

Iodine solution for leaching gold concentrates. 40 views. ... I have tried the Halide leaching using Iodine on Electronic Scrap and find that it does indeed disolve other metals such as nickle and copper so, it works but you still end up with a dore` that needs refining. The big drawback that I

The leaching of gold by thiocyanate solutions is performed at pHs between 1 and 2, which allows the use of iron (III) as an oxidizing agent. The mechanism of dissolution of gold by iron (III)-thiocyanate solutions is directly linked with the autoreduction process, in which Fe III is spontaneously reduced to Fe II while oxidizing SCN - This ...

Gold plating is stripped off from 97g cell phone SIM cards with Lugol's solution. After leaching the gold is precipitated with ascorbic acid (vitamin C).

A process for the recovery of gold from a potassium iodide-iodine solution is provided. The gold is precipitated from the solution using a weak acid, (e.g. ascorbic acid), a buffer, (e.g. sodium bicarbonate), and a dye. The precipitate is then removed from the solution resulting in the recovery the gold precipitate and the potassium iodide-iodine solution.

As a side benefit, the iodine leaching process can be used as a very simple, very quick method of determining the presence or absence of gold, even as a field test. However, the field test (because of the wide range of variables) is not a practical method for determining the exact, numerical quantity of gold in a particular sample and even a ...

Iodide-oxidizing bacteria (IOB) oxidize iodide into iodine and triiodide which can be utilized for gold dissolution. IOB can be therefore useful for gold leaching. This study examined the impact of incubation conditions such as concentration of the nutrient and iodide, initial bacterial cell number, incubation temperature, and shaking condition on the performance of the gold dissolution ...

Gold concentrate was leached by iodine-iodide solution system. The effects of different parameters such as stirring speed, leaching temperature, iodine concentration and iodide concentration on the gold leaching dynamics were investigated. The results show that increasing stirring speed has a negative influence on the gold leaching.

Gold is an almost non-reactive metal, but halogens — chlorine, bromine, fluorine and iodine — can dissolve it. Chlorine is the cheapest and lightest product that can achieve this. Bleach is the chemical compound sodium hypochlorite. When combined with hydrochloric acid, the mixture produces chlorine that dissolves gold from gold ore.

Abstract Iodine–iodide leaching is an effective and environmentally friendly gold extraction method that is expected to replace cyanidation. However, as the price of iodine is relatively high, for the industrial application of iodine–iodide leaching, decreasing the required amount of iodine is important to reduce production costs. In this study, persulfate was used to replace iodine as the ...
