    A process is disclosed for the direct recovery of gold from cyanide leach liquor, thiourea leach liquor or BioD leach liquor. The process comprises reduction precipitation of the gold from solution by the addition of stabilized alkali metal borohydride, preferably sodium, potassium, lithium or ammonium borohydride, at ambient temperature and pressure.

    Cyanide Process Cyanide process is also called as Macarthurforest Process. It is the process of extracting gold or silver from the ores by dissolving in a dilute solution of potassium cyanide or sodium cyanide. This process was introduced in the year 1887 by the Scottish chemists naming Robert W. Forrest, John S. MacArthur, and William Forrest.

  • Extracting Gold | HowStuffWorks

    Leaching dissolves the gold out of the ore using a chemical solvent. The most common solvent is cyanide, which must be combined with oxygen in a process known as carboninpulp. As the cyanide and oxygen react chemically, gold in the pulp dissolves. When workers introduce small carbon grains to the tank, the gold adheres to the carbon.
