DetailsWith the increasing of jarosite dosage from 2 to 10 g/L, the thiourea stability and gold dissolution continually decreased. The addition of oxalate to the thiourea solution could effectually relieve the harmful effect of jarosite on thiourea leaching of gold. As the oxalate dosage increased from 1 to 4 g/L, the thiourea stability constantly ...
Details4. In the present paper, a kinetic study of gold leaching in alkaline sulfide solutions is presented. For the gold leaching system, both a complexing lixiviant and an oxidant are required to effect dissolution. It will be shown that sulfide is an effective lixiviant, and the polysulfides are effective oxidants. 2.
