The invention relates to a new process for treating vulcanized gold-containing ore and belongs to the field of
hydrometallurgy. The process comprises the following steps of: before an experiment, smashing and
grinding ore into
powder and screening with a 200-mesh
sieve; preparing NH4SCN-NH4OH into a leaching
aqueous solution, and adding CuSO4; adding the vulcanized gold-containing ore subjected to
granulation and screening in a
leachate in a proportion of (3-10):1; and continuously introducing
oxygen, wherein the temperature is 80-200 DEG C, the
oxygen partial pressure is 0.6-2.0MPa, the stirring speed is 300-800r / min, and the reaction time is 1-5 hours. In the oxidation leaching process, the vulcanized ore coated with gold is sufficiently oxidized and decomposed, so that
thiocyanate ionscan be well matched with gold ions to enter into a solution, thereby improving the
leaching rate and
recovery rate of gold; after the leaching process is finished,
solid-liquid separation is carried out, thereby realizing the primary separation of
metal; and
leachate slag is further processed in a back
pyrometallurgy recovery section, and the gold-containing
leachate is adsorbed by
activated carbon and recovered.
