Abstract

양극흙에서 금의 불균일 분포에 따른 영향을 배제하기 위해 금과 은 금속혼합물을 사용하여 염산과 산화제(질산, 과산화수소, 차아염소산나트륨)의 혼합용액, thiourea 및 thiosulfate에 의한 침출실험을 수행했다. 염산에 산화제로 질산이나 과산화수소를 첨가한 용액에서 금은 모두 용해되었으나, 은의 침출율은 1% 정도이었다. Thiourea와 thiosulfate용액에서 금은 전혀 용해되지 않았다. 산성의 thiourea용액에 제 2철이온을 첨가하면 은의 침출율이 상승했으며 제 2철이온과 황산의 복합효과를 규명하기 위해서는 추가 연구가 필요하다. In order to exclude the effect of uneven distribution of gold in anode slime, the dissolution of gold and silver from the metal mixture was investigated in different systems, such as the mixture of hydrochloric acid and oxidizing reagents (<TEX>$H_2O_2$</TEX>, NaClO and <TEX>$HNO_3$</TEX>), thiosulfate and thiourea. In the mixture of HCl and either <TEX>$HNO_3$</TEX> or <TEX>$H_2O_2$</TEX>, Au was completely dissolved but the leaching percentage of Ag was around 1%. In both thiosulfate and thiourea solution, gold was not dissolved at all. The presence of ferric ion in acidic thiourea solution showed a favorable effect on the leaching of silver but further study is necessary to elucidate the combined effect of ferric ion and sulfuric acid.
