The environmental and public concern over the continued use of cyanide in the recovery of gold has grown in recent times due to a number of recently publicised environmental incidents. Of the alternative lixiviants, thiosulfate appears to be the most promising, though the considerable amount of research conducted on thiosulfate leaching of gold over the last three decades has not resulted in its commercial introduction. Perhaps the largest contributing factor to this is the poor understanding of the thiosulfate leach solution chemistry, especially the oxidation of thiosulfate in the presence of copper(II) and oxygen. It has been shown in this research that the oxidation of thiosulfate in the presence of copper(II) and oxygen is very complex with the rates of copper(II) reduction and thiosulfate oxidation being significantly faster in the presence of oxygen. The higher initial rate of copper(II) reduction indicated that oxygen increases the rate of copper(II) reduction to copper(I) by thiosulfate, though the mechanism for this remains unclear. The rates of thiosulfate oxidation and copper(II) reduction were also shown to be affected differently by the presence of anions. This is consistent with thiosulfate oxidation occurring via two mechanisms, with one of these mechanisms involving the oxidation of thiosulfate by copper(II) and the other involving the oxidation of thiosulfate by the intermediate superoxide and hydroxide radicals formed as a result of copper(I) oxidation by oxygen. The effect of various parameters on the rate of thiosulfate oxidation and the copper(II) concentration are also shown. 相似文献

因火法冶炼的高温活化作用,金可能与高岭石等硅酸盐类矿物相互作用,导致金的回收难度增大,探索焙烧温度对金与高岭石相互作用的影响具有意义。将室温高岭石及不同焙烧温度下的高岭石焙渣分别与硫代硫酸金充分混合进行搅拌试验,结合红外光谱和X射线衍射对高岭石与硫代硫酸金相互作用进行机理探讨。在矿浆浓度28.6%、初始金浓度85mg/L、搅拌转数500r/min及搅拌时间30min的条件下,得出高岭石与硫代硫酸金吸附能力强。与室温搅拌相比,焙烧活化了高岭石,增强了高岭石对硫代硫酸金的吸附效果。经700℃焙烧后的焙渣对硫代硫酸金的吸附量急剧增加,表明该温度下的焙渣对硫代硫酸金的吸附能力强。 相似文献

One of the biggest challenges for the gold industry in the 21st century is the presence of copper in gold containing ore bodies. This is because copper consumes large quantities of cyanide. In addition, copper cyanide species are more stable than free cyanide, and hence are problematic in events of tailings spillage. One of the methods which has been suggested for treating copper containing ores is to leach with an ammonia cyanide solution. The effect of copper and ammonia addition on gold leaching kinetics was studied in the present paper. It will be shown that when the solutions do not contain copper, the addition of ammonia decreases the rate of gold leaching. When copper is added to solution, the leach rate does decrease due to the formation of the copper cyanide complexes. However it will be shown that under conditions of zero free cyanide, gold does leach readily via the Cu(CN)32− complex. It was found that the addition of ammonia had little effect on the leaching of gold by Cu(CN)32−, but did increase the leaching kinetics when the major cyanide species present is Cu(CN)2−. Under these conditions, leaching in the absence of ammonia is very slow. The effect of copper(II) addition was also studied, and it was found that in the absence of free cyanide the presence of copper(II) increases the leach rate, provided there is enough ammonia to stabilise it against reaction with the copper(I) cyanide complexes. 相似文献

A large proportion of the gold processed in the 21st century will be recovered from sulfide ores. Since the sulfide minerals are to some extent soluble in cyanide solutions, there will always be some sulfur species present in the leach solution. It has been shown that soluble sulfide hinders the rate of gold leaching, forming a protective layer of the type Au/Sx. Electrochemical studies of the constituent half reactions: gold oxidation; and oxygen reduction, were consistent with this view. The effect of sulfide and cyanide concentrations on the leaching reaction were investigated, and it was shown that the sulfur formed is chemically attacked by cyanide, resulting in higher leach rates at higher cyanide concentrations. The effect of lead was also studied and is discussed in detail. 相似文献

In recent years a significant amount of research has focused on thiosulfate as an alternative lixiviant for gold. However few fundamental studies have been undertaken due to the complexity of the solution chemistry. This study investigates the effect of various parameters on the gold leaching kinetics and the undesirable homogeneous copper(II) reduction by thiosulfate. The leach kinetics are measured at essentially constant solution conditions using a rotating electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance, which measures mass changes in real time and hence leach rates within minutes. The gold leaching kinetics were found to be chemically controlled and the rate was found to decrease with time as the copper(H) concentration decreased. This can be attributed to passivation of the gold surface by the products of the copper(II)-thiosulfate reaction. Optimum leach conditions derived from this study are 0.4M ammonia, 0.1M thiosulfate, pH > 11.4, and temperature at 30°C. 相似文献

Available technologies for cyanides (CN−) treatment in gold mine effluents marginally degrade the thiocyanates (SCN−). Commonly, they convert the CN− into a less toxic compound, such as cyanates (OCN−), which afterwards are oxidized and generate ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N). Thus, the pretreated effluents require additional steps for complete degradation of SCN− and NH3-N. Recent research shows that ferrates [Fe(VI)] might represent a sustainable option for the efficient treatment of gold mine effluents. In this context, the objective of the present study was to assess the performance of Fe(VI) in SCN− and/or NH3-N treatment, as well as in their by-products degradation. The performance of Fe(VI) was evaluated using three different synthetic effluents (solutions) and two gold mine effluents contaminated by SCN− and/or NH3-N. Results indicated that more than 97% of SCN− were degraded with Fe(VI), while the NH3-N increased up to 50%, after SCN− oxidation of the presence of NH3-N, within one hour of reaction time. Consequently, for effluents that contain SCN− and NH3-N, longer reaction time is required or complementary treatment technologies, such as nitrification – denitrification, should be evaluated for complete degradation of N-compounds. 相似文献

Numerous papers discuss the mechanism of alkaline oxidation of pyrite but there is limited information available describing the actual kinetics of the pyrite sulphide to thiosulphate reaction. A previous investigation in this series determined the rate of sulphide sulphur oxidation and thiosulphate yield in the reaction of pyrite with sodium hydroxide under various testing conditions. The goal of the current study is to validate these rates using two different gold-containing pyrite concentrates. A further objective of the current work is to investigate the simultaneous dissolution of gold with in situ formed thiosulphate during pyrite oxidation.It was found that at 20 psi oxygen overpressure and a temperature of 80 °C, the initial rate of sulphide oxidation and thiosulphate yield were close to 0.08 mol/h and 0.0155 mol/h, respectively. These rates are in agreement with previously published data. However, a shift from linearity occurred when the pH decreased below 12. A rapid decay of thiosulphate was evidenced at pH 8.3–9.2 while EH was in the range of 22–141 mV. Based on relevant thermodynamic analysis of metastable thiosalts system, such rapid decomposition is not expected at these pH and EH values. It is believed that the presence of unreacted pyrite acting as a catalyst caused this behaviour. It appears that under mildly alkaline conditions, the rate of oxidation of sulphide to thiosulphate becomes slower than the rate of thiosulphate degradation, which causes a net loss of thiosulphate in the system. The maximum extraction of gold and silver (96% and 75% respectively) was achieved under conditions of pH < 12. 相似文献

The authors determine the forms of gold transfer under coal combustion by using the experimental data. It is found that the
micron-sized and nano-sized gold particles are carried away with flue ash during combustion, and only the insignificant part
of the gold, localized at underburnings, remains in the form of the free gold within a combustion chamber. The authors shows
that applying the method of fumesteam mixing and its futher condensation provides the maximum volatile forms of gold, being
the base for creating the geotechnology of unified production cycle of the efficient stock usage and the environmental safety
provision. 相似文献

Gold extraction and gold phytomining involve the use of adjuvants such as cyanide, thiocyanate, or thiosulfate to facilitate the dissolution of gold and its subsequent recovery. The adjuvants can be applied at high rates, in excess of 1 kg t−1 for some ores. At these concentrations, concerns have been expressed about adjuvant persistence and associated detrimental repercussions for the environment. The incubation study here examined the initial disappearance of these adjuvants in the dark following their amendment at 1 g kg−1 gold ore. Over a 24 d period, nearly 75% of the initial thiocyanate was lost within 24 d while >50% of thiosulfate and cyanide was lost over the same time frame. Cyanide and thiosulfate loss showed an exponential loss while thiocyanate was observed to follow a biphasic relationship. For the oxidic ore used, the adjuvants were not inherently persistent, suggesting that natural attenuation may rapidly promote adjuvant loss under specific conditions. 相似文献
