Problems solved by technology

[0004] The patent application number 201010259923.0 discloses a method for enriching iron sulfur from cyanide tailings by using a functional composite sol. The conventional cyanide tailings are treated, and the tailings are different from the tailings obtained by the carbon slurry method. In this patent, dilute sulfuric acid and functional composite sol are successively added to the conventional cyanide tailings slurry to stir, and then conventional flotation is performed to obtain gold-rich sulfur concentrate. The problem with this method is that dilute sulfuric acid is directly added to the cyanide tailings, will lead to residual CN in the tailings - Escaping in the form of HCN gas, endangering the environment
This method has the disadvantages of long fine grinding time, high cost, and a large amount of leaching aid, and the specific name of the leaching aid has not been announced.
[0007] The above technical status shows that although relevant researchers have done more research on the recovery and reuse of resources in cyanidation tailings, and have also proposed some solutions, but the existing methods have certain shortcomings, and the improvement of carbon slurry method is very important. There are few studies on gold tailings
However, the modified activated carbon loaded with nanometer iron and copper is used as a carrier to remove cyanide, iron arsenate colloid and jarosite colloid, and organic colloids from the tailings of gold extraction by the biological preoxidation-carbon slurry method, as a carrier to achieve Carrier flotation of fine-grained gold-bearing carbon, and the method of improving the recovery rate of gold in this type of tailings has not been reported so far

Abstract

The method provides a method for flotation recovery of gold from gold-extracting tailings obtained from a preliminary biooxidation-carbon-in-pulp process, and belongs to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of resources. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, preprocessing gold-extracting tailings obtained from a preliminary biooxidation-carbon-in-pulp process by virtue of nano copper / iron-loaded modified active carbon so as to remove residual cyanide which can inhibit the flotation of pyrite in the tailings; and netting ferric arsenate and jarosite colloids by virtue of colloidal substances generated from the nano copper / iron-loaded modified active carbon such as ferric hydroxide and adsorbing organic colloidal substances so as to eliminate a harmful effect on the flotation; meanwhile, carrying out carrier flotation on micro / fine-grained gold-containing carbon in the tailings by taking the nano copper- and iron-loaded modified active carbon as a carrier, so as to greatly improve the floatability of the micro / fine-grained gold-containing carbon. After flotation and decarburization, and after ore grinding, roughing, scavenging and concentrating are respectively carried out twice, so that gold concentrate is finally obtained. Materials and agents adopted by the method in the preprocessing and flotation processes are environmental friendly, easy to prepare and low in cost, so that the method disclosed by the invention is applicable to industrial production.

Background technique [0002] There are a large number of low-grade arsenic-containing fine-grained disseminated refractory gold ores in Southwest my country. More than 75% of the gold in this type of gold ore is wrapped by pyrite and arsenopyrite, and the monomeric and continuous gold is less than 10%. The leaching rate of direct gold cyanide is less than 15%. At present, such gold ores are mainly produced by flotation process, and the obtained gold concentrate is treated by biological pre-oxidation-carbon slurry gold extraction process. The specific production process of biological pre-oxidation-carbon slurry method includes gold concentrate regrinding, biological pre-oxidation, oxidation slag washing, oxidation washing liqui...
