The application of pressure oxidation (POX) followed by thiosulfate gold leaching is an efficient method used to extract gold from double refractory gold ores containing both sulfide and carbonaceous matter. This process is expected to result in high gold recovery rates, as it liberates gold from sulfides and eliminates the preg-robbing …

Fine gold can become black with a mold or allege growth on it. (look at the picture of my nugget of gold with the black growth on it.) The black sands can also be just like this nugget a lot of what you think is just black sand can be gold. So this is how you can recover it. Put all the black sands in a rock tumbler for a day or a few hours.

Thiosulfate leaching has been regarded as a promising alternative to cyanidation, but it still faces the challenge of the recovery of low content of gold from high concentrations of thiosulfate solutions. Liquid–liquid extraction is a method to address this issue but is still limited by the use of volatile and toxic organic solvents. To overcome …

Gradually add more of the back sands to the bowl. Due to its weight, the gold powder will fall through the vortex to the bottom of the bowl. When you finish there should be gold (assuming your concentrates contained gold of course), which was separated from the black sand with much less pain and far more quickly than if you had separated it ...

Recovering fine gold from black sands is one of the most challenging aspects of gold mining. While we are all hoping to find that once-in-a-lifetime gold nugget, the vast majority of gold that we find as prospectors is very small in size, ranging from gold flakes down to dust so small that it is nearly invisible. Extremely fine particles of gold like this can be …

Then the thiosulfate-gold complex is eluted with a solution of organic and inorganic base polythionates with concentration of 0.2 to 10%. Gold is isolated from the gold-containing eluate by a decomposition reaction or by an electrochemical method. In this case, the decomposition reaction is performed with such metals as magnesium, zinc or …
