The process is characterized for its economic cost against the agitated leaching process when the ore deposit has a low gold content. Typically the process can process ores whose gold content is 0.8-1.1 g/t. The leaching solution is spread at the top of the pile and the pregnant solution will have to percolate through the pile.

Abstract - Carbon-in-leach and carbon-in-pulp are continuous processes that use activated carbon in a cascade of large agitated tanks, which have been widely used to recover or concentrate precious metals in gold extraction plants. In the carbon-in-pulp process adsorption occurs after the leaching cascade section of

Activated carbon is an adsorbent that increases the concentration of gold in the solution phase. For example, an ore containing 3 g/t is leached, mixed with carbon, which loads …
CIL (Carbon in Leach) is a widely used method for extracting gold from ore. It is a metallurgical process that involves the dissolution of gold particles into a cyanide solution and their subsequent adsorption onto activated carbon. Mining operations commonly employ this process to recover gold from low-grade or refractory ore. CIL …

3. Carbon-In-Leach (CIL): The carbon-in-leach process integrates leaching and carbon-in-pulp into a single unit process operation. Leach tanks are fitted with carbon retention screens and the CIP tanks are eliminated. Carbon is added in leach so that the gold is adsorbed onto carbon almost as soon as it is dissolved by the cyanide solution.
Heap Leaching Flow Chart Incorporating Agglomeration into the Heap Leaching Process. The agglomeration of the fines in the heap leaching process allows for enhanced, even percolation of a heap. If left untreated, smaller fines can accumulate in the spaces between larger particles, inhibiting flow of the leaching solution (see figure 2).
Many opportunities exist throughout the world for small cyanide plants, possibly using a Gold Leaching Process, both for production and pilot operations, especially in areas not easily accessible, and where labor and local costs are on a level for profitable operation. Ores not fully amenable to treatment by amalgamation or flotation …

Carbon-In-Leach. Carbon-in-leach combines leaching with the carbon-in-pulp process, creating a single unit process operation. Usually this method is chosen when native carbon (a high organics load) is present in the gold ore, …
Copper processing is a complicated process that begins with mining of the ore (less than 1% copper) and ends with sheets of 99.99% pure copper called cathodes, which will ultimately be made into products for everyday use.The most common types of ore, copper oxide and copper sulfide, undergo two different processes, hydrometallurgy and …
