Ultimate Guide of Gold Heap Leaching Process

The industrial gold heap leaching process can be divided into two types, one is short-term gold heap leaching and the other is long-term gold heap leaching. In the short-term gold heap leaching process, the ore is usually crushed to less than 20 mm. When processing gold-bearing quartz veins, it is often crushed to less than 6 mm. The …

Improve Heap Leaching Percolation Rate

Agglomeration pretreatment increased the percolation rates from 0.5 to 7 gal/hr/ft² of cross-sectional area. Also included in table 3 is the silver extraction obtained during the simulated heap leaching sequence. The value of 45 pct extraction is essentially identical to that obtained by agitation leaching.

Heap leaching a stack of gold

Heap leaching can take anything from a couple of months to several years. In the case of gold recovery, heap leaching generally requires 60 to 90 days to leach the ore, compared to the 24 hours required by a conventional agitated leach process. Gold recovery is also usually only 70% compared with 90% recovery in an agitated leach plant.

Leaching Process

The heap leaching is a kind of industrial mining process which is useful for the extraction of precious metals, uranium, copper and several other compounds from their respective ores. This is done with the help of a series of chemical reactions that tend to absorb specific minerals and tend to re-separate them once they undergo a division from ...
