Get PriceA heap leach is a pile of crushed gold-bearing rock that is irrigated with a solution that drains through the rock to dissolve the gold. The solution is collected and the gold extracted from it. Heap leaching is one the most simple and cheapest ways to get gold out of the rock and has been used extensively since the 1960's (Miners News, 2010).

Get PriceCyanide leaching is most common in processing gold and silver ores. Cyanide will dissolve the gold from its host rock provided that the ore exists as an oxide and is not closely bound. In low-grade ore, gold will exist in the form of microscopic particles and be processed via heap leaching. If the gold exists in a larger, more concentrated
Get PriceApr 18, 2021The heap leach project was therefore considered as a separate satellite operation. The assumption was that all of the low grade pit ore would go only to the heap leach facility. However, in the back of our minds we knew that perhaps higher grade portions of
Get PriceHeap leaching (HL) is a flexible and economic mineral processing method, commonly used to extract gold from low-grade gold ores. In this process, ore is firstly crushed to fine particles. By spraying leaching solution to the large piles, the gold-containing solution is leached. Then used the method of carbon adsorption, zinc powder displacement
Get PriceHeap leaching is a processing technology with low operating costs and is being increasing considered for the treatment of marginal grade metalliferous ores. However, heap leach facilities significantly modify the site water balance and pose a risk of process water loss to the receiving environment.
Get PriceJul 05, 2018Heap leaching relies on a leaching agent moving through a bed of heaped ore to extract the metallic components: Crushed ore is stacked on a leaching pad and irrigated with the leaching agent. The leaching agent chemically reacts with the metal in the ore to dissolve the copper into the solution as it percolates through the heap.

Get PriceHeap and Dump leaching are processes used to extract metals such as copper, gold, nickel and uranium from their ores by placing the ore on a pad in the form of a heap. A heap leach encompasses a level of comminution while a dump leach is run of mine (ROM), where the ore is moved directly from mining to lixiviation.
