Jan 01, 2016#0183;#32;Three of the refractory operations are located in the Carlin Trend in the United States and are partly made up of doublerefractory ore but are primarily conventional refractory ores. Major deposits of refractory gold are located around the Super Pit in Western Australia, whereas large producing refractory gold deposits occur at Kumtor and Olimpiada in central Asia.
Sep 28, 2016#0183;#32;Speaking at the same forum, Vasilyev said Yakutia had some of the biggest resources of refractory gold in Russia. The three largest gold deposits in the province Nezhdaninskoye, Kyutchus and Tarynsky have estimated reserves of approximately 900 tonnes.

Dec 23, 2018#0183;#32;In 2001 when the gold price was just 272/oz, gold mining companies had cash costs of 176 an ounce, giving a 54% margin. However, by 2006 the gold
double refractory ore has been achieved at Nordgolds Suzdal mine in Kazakhstan which treats double refractory ore with both visible and invisible gold hosted in sulphide associations of pyrite and arsenopyrite and also, carbonaceous black shale. Following extensive laboratory and demonstration scale testing of the Outotec
A significant contemporary challenge for gold mining companies is to define economic process options for treating more complex ore bodies as the less refractory ores become depleted. Demonstration of economic treatment options allows gold companies to maintain and increase their ore reserves.
Subsequent mineralogy showed the ore to be a characteristic pyrite, carbonaceous refractory gold ore (double refractory). This was a very disappointing finding. A small scale gravity and flotation test programme was developed to produce a concentrate with the majority of the gold. This also failed with most of the gold remaining in the tailings.

Our experienced team of metallurgical professionals has developed bankable flowsheets for thousands of projects. These flowsheets are confirmed by bench and pilotscale testing programs that are internationally recognized by the mining, engineering and financial communities. SGS is the industry leader in refractory gold characterization.
Double refractory ores present a unique challenge to the traditional method of gold recovery in mining. Double refractory ores are ores that contain sulfides and carbons, as opposed to single refractory ores which contain only sulfides. In general, the cyanide solution pulls the gold
Removal of TCM from unoxidized, double refractory ores has been problematic due to significant gold losses in the TCM concentrate, which renders such removal impractical. Removing TCM from oxidized sulfide products can circumvent such gold losses and reduce the preg robbing behavior of the ores.
for adequate gold recovery to be achieved through traditional cyanidation and carbon adsorption processes. Pyrite and arsenopyrite are the most common host minerals in refractory gold deposits. Recent introduction of hydrometallurgical pretreatment processes, such as pressure oxidation and bacterial leaching (biooxidation), has given mining
May be increasing gold recovery from refractory gold ore (with grade 23 g/t) to 9095%?Actual data of top refractory gold ore mines show, that gold recovery is 70% and less. What is reason? It is a problem in minerals processing or it is a global science problem? So if you work with refractory ore,
Many double refractory gold deposits are characterized by the dominance of quot;invisible goldquot; (submicroscopic gold) as solid solution or as colloidalsized particles in different sulfides and other...
at Barricks Goldstrike Mine where gold occurs in pyrite in refractory sulfide ore and doublerefractory sulfidic/ carbonaceous ore. These ores are pretreated by autoclave and roaster prior to cyanide leaching (Thomas et al., 2000; Wickens et al., 2003). In the Jinya Carlintype gold deposit in China, gold occurs mainly as submicroscopic gold in
Pressure oxidation was selected as the most feasible processing technology for double refractory ores. It is able to achieve gold recoveries of 96% by utilising high temperatures, elevated pressure and oxygen to recover encapsulated gold, while conventional cyanidation methods would result in

Gold extraction refers to the processes required to extract gold from its may require a combination of comminution, mineral processing, hydrometallurgical, and pyrometallurgical processes to be performed on the ore.. Gold mining from alluvium ores was once achieved by techniques associated with placer mining such as simple gold panning and sluicing, resulting in direct recovery of
A need for technologies to treat smaller deposits Industry data show that the amount of gold contained in refractory measured and indicated (Mamp;I) resources is approximately double the amount of contained gold in economically viable refractory gold reserves.
