Abstract

The invention provides a method for reducing consumption of thiosulfate in a gold leaching system. According to the method, the additive is humic acid extracted from coal and adopting fulvic acid , and humin acid as main components; during application, the humic acid is added into a copper-ammonia-thiosulfate system, wherein the adding amount of the humic acid is in the range of 20-120 mg/dm3, preferably 80mg / L, the copper-ammonia-thiosulfate system comprises 0.01-0.05mol/dm<3> of copper (II) ion, 0.3-2mol/dm <3> of aqua ammonia and 0.3-1mol/dm <3> of thiosulfate, and the pH value of pulp is 10-11. By using the leaching solution (namely the copper-ammonia-thiosulfate) to extract gold from ore, the consumption of the thiosulfate can be remarkably reduced on the premise of not affecting the leaching rate of gold.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrometallurgy, relates to a process for extracting gold with thiosulfate, and more specifically relates to a method for reducing consumption of thiosulfate in a gold leaching system. Background technique [0002] Cyanide is currently the main method for extracting gold. However, the sodium cyanide used in the cyanide process is a highly toxic chemical, which is very unsafe for operators and may cause serious environmental problems. In recent years, some countries and regions have banned the use of cyanide in gold extraction as countries start from the perspective of people-oriented security and pay more and more attention to environmental issues. Moreover, for refractory gold ores, the leaching effect of the cyanidation method is relatively poor. Therefore, the non-cyanidation method of gold extraction has increasingly become a hot research field. [0003] In non-cyanidation gold extraction technology,...
