Gold Mining Operation: 10 - 30 years. The gold mining operation stage represents the productive life of a gold mine, during which ore is extracted and processed into gold. Processing gold involves transforming rock and ore into a metallic alloy of substantial purity – known as doré – typically containing between 60-90% gold.

The extraction and processing techniques for platinum and gold also differ. Gold is typically extracted using various methods, including placer mining, hydraulic mining, and heap leaching. Once extracted, gold ore is often processed through crushing, grinding, and chemical treatments such as cyanidation to separate the gold from the ore matrix.

In over 80 developing countries in the world, mercury is the artisanal gold miner's go-to for separating gold from concentrated ore. Due to a lack of resources and available alternatives, mercury is often handled with bare hands, and in the effort to amalgamate gold, much of it escapes into waterways and soil where it enters the food chain.

The gold ore extracted from the mines has many impurities, including traces of other metals. To separate the gold from these other metals, chemicals such as mercury or cyanide solution should be introduced in the gold. This process leads to gold coagulation, which results in nuggets or clumps of gold.
