Oct 13, 2021. #1. I tried gold plated pin stripping by sodium cyanide 20gram/litre and gold stripping solution of 150ml/litre company is growel stripping. There is no problem in dissolving gold with this solution. I cant extract the gold. After dissolving the ph is showing 14. Then i add 10 gram NAOH and add zinc dust. There is no reaction taking.
The cost analysis showed that an increase in the cyanide concentration and the introduction of lead nitrate can have potential financial benefits. However, an increase in the pH value resulted in a negative net benefit. Conclusions. An increase in the cyanide levels improves gold extraction but results in increased cyanide consumption.

Little attention was given to solvent extraction of gold from alkaline cyanide solutions where technical literature indicated that only tertiary and quaternary amines were studied for extraction of gold from cyanide solution [18] [19] . ... The analysis for silver and gold showed good agreement with the results using fire assay method [20] .
This was, to add a small amount of dilute bromine water to a dilute stock-solution of potassium cyanide, the latter in chemical excess, in the presence of metallic gold. The reactions that take place may be analyzed as follows: (a) 2KCy + Br = KBr + Cy + KCy. (b) Au + Cy + KCy = KAuCy2.
Alkaline cyanide solution (100 ml of 0.2% potassium cyanide, 2% calcium hydroxide or oxide) is added to the sample bottle, and then mixed on a battery-operated bottle roller (also avail- able from Chemtronics) for about 12 hours or longer to facilitate dissolution of the Au. Smaller numbers of larger sized samples e.g. 1 kg, can be analysed.
The two methods presented for the determination of traces of gold in geologic materials are the cyanide atomic-absorption method and the fire-assay atomic-absorption method. In the cyanide method gold is leached with a sodium-cyanide solution. The monovalent gold is then oxidized to the trivalent state and concentrated by extracting into methyl isobutyl …
Starting with the leaching stage, an aqueous solution is used to dissolve gold from ores. Cyanide solutions are very efficient but their toxicity makes the development of alternative reagents such as thiosulfate (Birich et al., 2019; Sousa et al., 2016), halides, thiocyanide, thiourea and microbial leaching (Beckman and Thompson, 2004), imperative.
A solvent extraction method using diisobutyle ketone (DIBK) is designed for the accurate and precise estimation of very low concentrations of gold in rocks, ores and other geological samples. 30 g ...
1999. A. JD, If you can strip the part using aqua regia, using care to minimize attack on the base metal, the gold can be precipitated from the aqua regia as follows: 1) Boil aqua regia down to incipient dryness- till only a few mls. of liquid remain. 2) Reconstitute using 100-200 mls. deionized water. 3) Adjust pH to 2.5 and bring solution to boil. 4) …
Gold leaching using bio-cyanide (Bio-CN) solution has been extensively studied as an economic, simple, and effective alternative method to the traditional cyanidation technology. In recent years, it has been reported that bacteria like Chromobacterium violaceum, Pseudomonas species, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus …

All necessary gold assays of dry solids were determined using di isobutyl ketone (DIBK) solvent extraction and atomic absorption spectrometry. Determinations of levels of gold in solution were conducted using direct AAS analysis. Carbon contents were approximated by measuring the mass loss after heating the sample to 850°C for 2 hours.
The extraction of the gold (III) from a chloride medium into DIBK containing either ctyl methyl ammonium chloride or ctylamine was quantitative up to a pH of 4 [18]. The same method of extraction from an aqueous cyanide solution was quantitative up to a pH of 10. The range of the method is from 0.01 to 50 g/mL.
Solutions to this problem typically propose the use of larger sample sizes, typically 30 g or greater. 3 Furthermore, when using acid digestions, in the absence of hydrofluoric acid, low recoveries have been associated with the encapsulation of gold in the siliceous rock. 1,2,4,5 Here, it is presumed that gold is secreted within a refractory matrix, making it …

The work [] describes the production of gold-bearing alloys (mainly ferrous) during extended studies on direct smelting of a mixture of gold-arsenic concentrates by restoring the bulk of the iron in the charge and performing reducing smelting of cinders obtained following roasting of gold-bearing mattes.The resulting alloys contain (mass %): …
Procedures for gold determination must take into account: • Sample type, • Sample concentration, • Purpose of the analysis, • Sample mineralogy and form of the gold (if known). Lead collection fire assay is considered the most definitive technique while acid digests and accelerated cyanide leaches can be effective for specific purposes.
Di-Isobutyl-Ketone (DIBK) has been commonly used in most mining and allied industries to extract gold from aqueous solutions for analytical purposes. In most cases a complexing agent, methyl tricapryl ammonium chloride otherwise called aliquat 336 is added to the DIBK to give a 1% volume by volume solution. The DIBK containing aliquat 336 is then used …

Groudev et al. (1999) used solutions that contained amino acids of microbial origin and thiosulphate to leach the gold and silver from oxide ores that contained 3.5 g/t of gold and 14 g/t of silver. First, an alkaline solution (pH 10–10.5) was irrigated on the top of the heap to stabilize the pH.
[14]-[16]. A prerequisite for analysis of gold with MIBK [17]and its determination in graphite furnace was the previous precipitation of iron with ammonium hydroxide in order to eliminate interference effect on gold. Little attention was given to solvent extraction of gold from alkaline cyanide solutions where technical litera-
