Acidic pretreatment of a copper-silver ore and its …

For example, ore deposits in the Peruvian central Andes include copper and silver minerals hosted in a mixture of pyrite and silica (Baumgartner et al., 2008, Einaudi, 1977). This type of ore can be processed by cyanidation although high consumption of cyanide and low extraction of silver will undermine the economic viability of the project.

Cyanide Facts | The Cyanide Code

At low pH and at neutral pH, hydrogen cyanide is the dominant form of cyanide, and as pH increases CN- becomes the dominant form. At a pH of 11, over 99% of the cyanide remains in solution as CN-, while at pH 7, over 99% of the cyanide will exist as HCN. At a pH of 9.3 – 9.5, CN – and HCN are in equilibrium, with equal amounts of each present.

Thiosulfate as an Alternative Lixiviant to Cyanide for Gold Ores

Abstract. Thiosulfate is generally considered to be an attractive alternative reagent to cyanide for processing gold. It is relatively inexpensive and nontoxic, forms strong gold and silver complexes, and readily leaches gold ores when catalyzed by Cu (II). Research over the past 30years has focused mostly on the understanding and applying …

The Safe and Effective Use of Cyanide

Issue. The family of chemicals containing "cyanide", a combination of carbon and nitrogen, has been used safely and effectively for over 130 years for the efficient extraction and recovery of gold and silver from ore. Cyanide is also used for a variety of other applications both within and outside the mining industry.

Should cyanide still be used in modern-day mining?

Cyanide still has an important role in gold mining and when used will always be a risk. Though Mudd believes: "Cyanide can be managed…However, it does require a lot of due diligence and careful attention.". "Using best practices and auditing is the best thing and mining companies are doing that," agrees Blackmore.
