Gold cyanidation also known as the cyanide process or the MacArthur Forrest process is a hydrometallurgical technique for extracting gold from low grade ore by converting the gold to a water solubleplex. It is themonly used leaching process for gold extraction.
Production of reagentsfor mineral processing to recover gold, copper, zinc and silver represents approximately 13 of cyanide consumption globally, with the remaining 87 of cyanide used in other i
