Abstract. GENCOR Ltd. has pioneered the commercialization of biooxidation of refractory gold ores. Development of the BIOX #174; process started in the late 197os at GENCOR Process Research, in Johannesburg, South Africa. The early work was championed by Eric LiveseyGoldblatt, the manager of GENCOR Process Research who directed pioneering and innovative research into bacterial oxidation

Being the most common sulfide minerals, Arsenopyrite and pyrite under oxidizing conditions breaks down to release acids of As and S into the environment, leading to acid mine drainage with high concentrations of dissolved As. In this research, the dissolution of gold ore (with FeS2 and FeAsS as the main sulfides) from Tianli gold mine, Liaoning province, China was investigated.

Gold ores are considered refractory if gold extractions from a conventional cyanidation process are less than 80% even after fine grinding. 1) Arsenicbearing refractory gold ore has stones extremely difficult to deal with. In the stones, gold is locked up in arsenic mineral matrix as the form of microscopic or submicroscopic lattice.
pressure oxidation of refractory gold ores: the . Pressure Oxidation Pressure oxidation is employed to liberate gold and silver in refractory sulfide concentrates often and ores. The main pressure oxidation products from iron sulfide minerals are sulfuric acid (and metal sulfates) and hematite.

Biooxidation Biooxidation uses sulfur consuming bacteria in a water solution to remove sulfur Pressure oxidation Utilizes oxygen and heat under pressure in a liquid medium to effect oxidation of sulfur by way of a controlled chemical reaction High pressure autoclaves
their possible applications to treat refractory gold ores (5). These processes can be classified as pressure oxidation (6), biological oxidation (7), and chemical oxidation (8). Emerging pressure oxidation processes that can be used to treat goldbearing arsenopyrite include a calcium
Pressure oxidation (POX), high pressure oxidation (HiPOX) and ACTIVOX autoclave leaching are viable industrystandard technologies used to recover gold and other accessory metals. Read more The process is particularly well suited for treating refractory gold ores, which give low recovery when directly leached with cyanide.
gold from ores having good gold liberation at a p80 greater than 300 micron. In under 10 months the The higher oxidation rates and more complete oxidation at the higher temperature results in lower cyanide consumption during subsequent leaching of the biooxidation product.
refractory gold ores (autoclave, biological decomposition followed by cyanidation). biooxidation, etc. All of these processes are well documented in the literature [1,2] and abundantly described. However, very little is known about the flotation properties of gold contained in various ores and the sulphides that carry gold.

Srdjan M. Bulatovic, in Handbook of Flotation Reagents: Chemistry, Theory and Practice, 2010. Flotation of Arsenical Gold Ores. There are two major groups of arsenical gold ores of economical value. These are the massive base metal sulphides with arsenical gold ( the leadzinc Olympias deposit, Greece) and arsenical gold ores without the presence of base metals.
