Estimating process design gold extraction, leach residence time and cyanide consumption for high cyanide-consuming gold ore M. Brittan Head consulting metallurgist, Gold Fields, Greenwood Village, CO, USA; currently president, ... carbon-in-leach (CIL) or carbon-in-pulp (CIP) tests using standard procedures (Angove, 2005). The key
The CIL process The carbon-in-leach (CIL) process, illustrated in Figure 3 is a variation of the CIP process. In this process carbon is added directly to the leach circuit so that the leaching and adsorption processes proceed simultaneously. Capital cost is reduced, as only one set of agitators for both leaching and
This document presents a dynamic model of the gold leaching and adsorption process onto activated carbon. The model describes the carbon-in-leach process mathematically, and can also be simplified to model the carbon-in-pulp and gold leaching processes. The model is numerically solved and calibrated using experimental plant data. The calibrated model is then used to …
A double refractory gold ore contains gold particles locked in sulphides, solid-solution in arsenopyrite, and preg-robbing material such as carbonaceous matter, and so on. The diagnostic leach test (DLT) and preg-robbing (PR) approaches are widely used to investigate the occurrence and the distribution of refractory gold. DLT serves to qualitatively evaluate the gold …
Cyanidation (Carbon-in-Leach, Carbon-in-Pulp, ... Elution Process: The gold-loaded carbon is introduced into an elution column or vessel. A hot solution, typically a cyanide solution mixed with sodium hydroxide or another suitable eluant, is passed through the column. The cyanide solution acts to desorb or strip the gold from the surface of the ...

Activated carbon has been used as an effective adsorbent in the industry of gold processing to recover gold from mining processes. Carbon in the column, carbon in pulp, and carbon in leach all use coconut shell GAC (granulated activated carbon) because of its exceptional hardness and high surface area.The Recovery Process
The gold leaching( carbon in leach) process has been widely used in newly built gold leaching plants in recent years, and many plants are changing into CIL as well.The gold-leaching CIL process is suitable for treating oxidized gold ore with low sulfur and mud content.It is unsuitable for the gold ore with high-grade silver. Generally, the proportion of gold and silver should not …
Cyanidation, or the metallurgical process of extracting gold from ore with cyanide leaching agents, has long been a primary method of gold beneficiation.Widely used throughout the world, one incredible material helps to make gold recovery from a cyanide solution possible; with its ultra-porous structure, activated carbon is a powerful adsorbent used throughout a number of …
The carbon-in-leach process integrates leaching and carbon-in-pulp into a single unit process operation in which the leach tanks are fitted with carbon retention screens and the carbon-in-pulp tanks are eliminated. The activated carbon is added in leach, with gold adsorption occurring nearly simultaneously with gold dissolution by the cyanide ...
Abstract - Carbon-in-leach and carbon-in-pulp are continuous processes that use activated carbon in a cascade of large agitated tanks, which have been widely used to recover or concentrate precious metals in gold extraction plants. In the carbon-in-pulp process adsorption occurs after the leaching cascade section of

Whether you're processing gold cyanide solutions or recovering fine gold, activated carbon plays a crucial role in maximizing gold recovery efficiency. It is widely used in gold extraction processes such as carbon-in-pulp (CIP), carbon-in-leach (CIL), and carbon-in-column (CIC), enabling operators to optimize the recovery of gold and reduce ...
The leaching and carbon adsorption kinetic data are fitted to Eqs. (2), (3), which have been shown in many projects to describe gold leaching and adsorption rates well. These equations are then used in CIP and CIL models to predict profiles of gold in solution, on the carbon and in the leach residue across a series of leaching and adsorption ...
