Can gold miners say 'sayonara' to cyanide?
The company is targeting small to medium scale miners that can't afford a conventional cyanide plant or want to avoid using cyanide. According to CSIRO, the cost of a typical cyanide-based processing plant is around $30 million, but the new technology, which is scalable, can cost as little as $2-2.5 million.

FLOWSHEET DEVELOPMENT FOR GOLD OREBODIES
The main disadvantage is that gold recovery is generally lower than that achieved by grinding to a finer size and leaching in stirred tanks. In addition, the rate of leaching is slow and recoverable gold can be held up in the heap for months, which impacts cash flow. There can also be longer term environmental liabilities associated with heap ...

Effect of Oxygen on Gold Leaching
In simplified terms, the Effect of Oxygen on Gold Leaching can be summarized in saying: The dissolution rate of gold in alkaline cyanide solutions under atmospheric conditions, and at practical cyanide levels, is directly proportional to the dissolved oxygen concentration. The rate of dissolution of gold in alkaline cyanide …

Precious Metal Heap Leach Design and Practice
Thus, evaporative loss of 7% is equal to 6.2 meters per year on the areas actually being sprinkled. If the heap and pond systems are properly designed, the active leaching area can be up to 40% of the total area collecting rainfall; it is therefore possible to operate in water balance when rainfall is 2.5 meters/year.

Heap Leaching
Heap leaching is the most important method of hydrometallurgical copper extraction. Heap leaching is used for treating oxide and lower-grade secondary sulfide ores that contain up to ∼2% Cu. The ore is crushed to a uniform particle size (typically 12–50 mm), often agglomerated, and then stacked on large flat-topped heaps in a controlled manner.. …

One of the advantages of heap leaching versus conventional milling and using either carbon-in-pulp (CIP) or carbon-in-leach (CIL) for gold recovery is the lower cost. However, along with that lower cost comes a lower recovery rate. Gold recovery is also usually only about 55% to 75% compared with roughly 90% recovery in an agitated …
