Bioleaching: Introduction Methods Application Copper Microorganisms and Processes! Introduction to Bioleaching: Leaching process was first observed in pumps and pipelines installed in mine pits containing acid water This process was later on employed for recovering metals from ores containing low quantity of the metal Presently certain metals from sulfide ores and other ores are

Gold which has formed an alloy with other metal forming a solid solution is considered refractory by definition if you can't get recoveries beyond 80% then you can call it a refractory ore whether it's a mineral processing problem or not will depend on the type of refractory I will consider a mineral processing problem those ores which have micro gold particles which cannot be liberated

Thus heap leaching is mainly applied to low-grade ores such as secondary copper sulphides pyritic gold ores or nickel/nickel-copper sulphide ores The hypothetical heap operation in Figure 5 illustrates the application of solution irrigation common to both oxide and sulphide ores and of aeration usually applied to sulphide ores to

FOR GOLD RECOVERY FROM REFRACTORY ORES In this article pre-treatment such as bio-leaching before cyanidation is discussed as an alternative technique to treat refractory gold ores containing pyrite and arsenopyrite There are two methods of bacterial leaching namely stirred reactor bio-leaching and bio-heap leach processes The examples of

To complicate matters further these ore bodies are often refractory where the gold is locked within sulphide minerals or double refractory in which gold is locked within sulphide minerals and preg-robbing due to the presence of organic carbon These must be pretreated ahead of leaching

1 Introduction Gold ores are considered refractory if gold extractions from a conventional cyanidation process are less than 80% even after fine grinding 1) Arsenic-bearing refractory gold ore has stones extremely difficult to deal with In the stones gold is locked up in arsenic mineral matrix as the form of microscopic or submicroscopic lattice
