·The possible intensifying mechanism of leaching gold from the calcine via the pretreatment of acid or alkali washing was that the presence of complex silicates possibly resulted in the blockage of porous structure of the calcine during the roasting process In comparison with acid washing the calcine to directly expose the gold inclusions in
·In the acid washing process Hydrochloric acid is introduced to the activated carbon dissolving inorganic salts and metal impurities that might otherwise interfere with adsorption Leaching and flushing The acid treated carbon is then flushed with water to remove any dissolved metals reducing ash content and improving purity
·Gold is a highly required material for a wide range of personal and industrial applications The high demand for gold together with the shortage of natural resources and high pollution potential of wastes generated during mining and ore processing activities led to search for alternative sources of gold A possible source is represented by mine wastes resulting from
