Improving the process performance of gold cyanide leaching ...

Most of the new gold that is mined each year is processed via adsorption of gold cyanide onto activated carbon (Fleming et al. 2011). Typically, the carbon in pulp (CIP) or carbon in leach (CIL) process is used for gold recovery. These
