What is the role of cyanide in mining? Cyanide is a naturally occurring chemical that is found in low concentrations throughout nature including in fruits nuts plants and insects It has been used by the mining industry to separate gold and silver particles from ore for over 120 years With proper management cyanide can be used safely and

Gold Cyanide Solution (Leaching Gold With Cyanide) Since the 1890's cyanide has been used to recover gold from gold bearing ores And today over 115 years later most of the worlds gold is recovered with cyanide playing a large part in the beneficiation of the yellow precious metal

The process to concentrate gold using cyanide was developed in Scotland in 1887 and was used almost immediately in the Witwatersrand gold fields of the Republic of South Africa Heap leaching with cyanide was proposed by the U S Bureau of Mines in 1969 as a means of extracting gold from low-grade ores The gold industry adopted the technique

The discovery that metallic gold is soluble in potassium cyanide came after studying the action of cyanides on plates of gold and announced that they were slowly dissolved Metallurgists pointed out that gold-leaf is dissolved by a dilute solution of the salt and also showed that if the gold floats on the surface of the liquid so that one side of the leaf is in contact with the air

Gold cyanidation (also known as the cyanide process or the MacArthur-Forrest Process) is a metallurgical technique for extracting gold from low-grade ore by converting the gold to water soluble aurocyanide metallic complex ions It is the most commonly used process for gold extraction Due to the highly poisonous nature of cyanide the process is highly controversial

Abstract: Numerous old gold sand and slimes tailings dumps on the Witwatersrand have been reprocessed since the 1980s for residual gold extraction using cyanide as a lixiviant There are numerous technologies available by which many cyanide species may be decomposed However at most gold mines in South Africa cyanide is simply discharged with the effluent
