AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies cannot accurately and efficiently measure the organic carbon content and particle size in gold ore simultaneously, resulting in a decrease in gold leaching rate. Existing methods are inefficient, the results are easily affected by human factors, and the errors are large.
Using palm wax as a binder, combined with barite standard samples, and employing an automated process mineralogical testing system, the precise identification and particle size distribution of organic carbon particles were achieved through scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The organic carbon content was then calculated by combining the area ratio and density ratio.
It achieves an organic carbon content testing error of less than ±0.05% and a particle size testing error of less than ±0.5μm, improves testing efficiency by 3-10 times, provides highly objective and repeatable results, and provides comprehensive process mineralogical data to support the optimization of gold ore cyanide leaching processes.
