Abstract

Disclosed is a non-cyanide leaching agent. The non-cyanide leaching agent comprises thiocyanate, thiourea, thiocyanogen and cyanate. The molar ratio of each component is 4-8:0.5-1:0.5-3:1-2. The non-cyanide leaching agent has the advantages of being high in leaching rate, high in leaching speed, stable in performance, wide in applicable range, low in cost, high in adaptive capacity to environment and simple and convenient in technology, and the leaching rate of gold in sulfuration gold mine with high sulfur and high arsenic and difficult to process is improved to above 96%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of gold ore extraction by a non-cyanide method, in particular to a non-cyanide leaching agent and a method for leaching gold ore. Background technique [0002] With the depletion of resources and the gradual expansion of industrial demand, the recovery of gold mines is becoming more and more difficult. The recovery of gold from refractory gold mines has been paid more attention and has become the main raw material for extracting gold. Leaching is the main means of recovering refractory gold ores, and the cyanidation method has become the main means of gold extraction due to its mature technology, wide adaptability, stable indicators, simple operation, high leaching efficiency, and good economic benefits. However, the cyanidation method is easily affected by impurity minerals, and the leaching time is long. At the same time, the severe toxicity of cyanide leaching agent has brought great harm to the environment and st...
