Gold Recovery
Carbon-In-Leach. Carbon-in-leach combines leaching with the carbon-in-pulp process, creating a single unit process operation. Usually this method is chosen when native carbon (a high organics load) is present in the gold ore, adsorbing the leached gold and preventing its recovery.

Gold recovery from carbon-in-pulp eluates by precipitation …
INTRODUCTION In the carbon-in-pulp process, cyanide solution at high pH and elevated tem- perature is used to elute gold from carbon. The gold is recovered from this eluate by electroplating on to wire wool as described by Paul [ 1 ]. This electro- plating process can reduce the gold tenor to below 10 mg/L but only with a large number of stages ...

Carbon in pulp
Carbon in Pulp (CIP) is a technique for recovery of gold which has been liberated into a cyanide solution as part of the gold cyanidation process, a gold extraction technique.. Introduced in 1985, Carbon in Pulp is regarded as a simple and cheap process. As such it is used in most industrial applications where the presence of competing silver or copper does not prohibit its use.
Decarbonizing the pulp and paper industry: A critical and …
Pulp and paper products have a short life cycle, and most of the carbon from papermaking ends in the atmosphere within a year. After the carbon is released either by fire to clear land or from the decomposition of roots, slashes, and leaves, there is a continuous period of prolonged emissions as branches and coarse roots decay [ 112 ].
