Oxide ore deposits are frequently of such low grade (e.g., 3 to 10 parts per million) that extensive mineral processing cannot economically be
get pricePressure oxidation of gold ores is therefore a pretreatment leaching step to enhance gold recovery. Although pressure oxidation of gold ores and concentrates does not directly recover gold in a strict sense of the above definition, it is an essential step to enable the gold to be recovered.

The technology started to process ores in the 1950 s, and at first leached to recovery copper from the low-grade copper ore or marginal copper ore. In the mid-1980 s, the first commercial plant which applied bacterial oxidation to pretreat refractory gold ores was built in South Africa.

Grinding fineness of gold. For the gold wrapped in sulfide minerals, sulfide ore reaches monomer dissociation; but for the gold with gangue, grinding fineness should reach
get priceA Poor Man's Method of Smelting Gold You can remove the most common metals found in gold ore (copper, zinc and lead) using elements that bond with oxygen at lower temperatures than gold. This oxidation process will make copper oxide, zinc oxide and lead oxide — all of which are less dense than pure gold and will float to the top of your
get priceSuch equipment isn't cheap of coarse but if you're going to be handling thousands of pounds of rock, it's just too much to consider panning as an option for processing. Another possibility that needs to be considered is the use of mercury in capturing the finest gold particles from your ores.
