Cyanide is the major leachate for gold production in the mining industry because of its high leaching efficiency, low cost, and high stability [8], [9]. About 90% of the gold ore is produced with cyanidation globally [10], [11]. The gold-bearing ores are mixed with cyanide solution at an alkaline pH and dissolved in the reaction as follows [12]:

Figure 26.1 shows a potential sweep when the gold electrode is in contact with lead sulfide in a cyanide solution. The lead sulfide accelerated the gold dissolution rate most likely by the same mechanism as lead nitrate. The peak between 600 and 500 mV (vs normal hydrogen electrode, NHE) corresponds to AuPb 2 alloy, the peak between …

In cyanidation, metallic gold is oxidized and dissolved in an alkaline cyanide solution. The oxidant employed is atmospheric oxygen, which, in the presence of an aqueous solution of sodium cyanide, causes the dissolution of gold and the formation of sodium cyanoaurite and sodium hydroxide, according to the so-called Elsner reaction:

Before going into the theory of the cyanide process, a brief review of the chemical properties of gold may be beneficial. Gold does not oxide (tarnish) at ordinary temperatures nor is it soluble in sulphuric, nitric or hydrochloric acids. It does dissolve in aqua regia(a mixture of nitric and hydrochloric acid) also in some c…
