Chlorine Oxygen Leaching Process

These systems involve leaching the solids in a slurry using different sources of chloride—such as chlorine gas, hydrochloric acid, or ferrous chloride—and subsequently reacting the resulting slurry with oxygen at less than 50 psig pressure and a temperature of about 110° C. Metals such as Cu, Ni, Zn, Co, and Cd were converted to soluble ...

Hypochlorite Leaching of Gold

More than a century ago, gold ores were treated by roasting and subsequent leaching with aqueous solution of chlorine. Ross (1902) reported that chlorine consumption was 3 - 10 kilograms per tonne of ore and the gold extraction was 90 - 98 per cent MacArthur and Forrest introduced the cyanidation process in 1887. Cyanide

Abstract This paper deals with gold extraction from a refractory concentrate by chlorine leaching. The process considers a pre-treatment of refractory materials by low temperature oxidation carried out with low oxygen concentration. The oxidized material is treated by leaching with brine. After gold adsorption/reduction onto activated carbon, iron and base metals can be precipitated by NaOH.
