Abstract

The ore assays 2.5g/t Au, 23.4% S and 56.6% Fe. This research enriched the gold by flotation, and recovered it by a chemical process. The obtained flotation concentrate contains 66.35%g/t gold and 37.06% S with recovery 96.14% and 96.42% respectively. A roasting process was conducted at 900-1000°C for 5.5hrs, followed by cyanide leaching of the residue. The gold leaching rate reaches 87.4% with an adsorption rate of 97.6%. Furthermore, the regrinding of the concentrate to 95% -0.18μm was conducted, and followed by cyanide leaching at pH11.5 for 12hrs. The results show the amount leached gold reaches 92.5% with an adsorption rate of 99.21%, which increases by 1.61% and 5.1% in comparison with the roasting-leaching process.
