Heap leaching is a well-established extractive metallurgical technology enabling the economical processing of various kinds of low-grade ores, which could not otherwise be exploited. However, despite much progress since it was first applied in recent times, the process remains limited by low recoveries and long extraction times.

Apr 29 2014. Leaching is a chemical process in mining for extracting valuable minerals from ore. Leaching also takes place in nature, where the rocks are dissolved by water. Post leaching, the rocks are left with a smaller proportion of minerals than they originally contained. The leaching process in mining is carried out either as heap ...

Cyanide is a lixiviant, or reagent that is used to leach, often in tanks, gold from a solid matrix and form a gold cyanide complex. The gold cyanide complex is then extracted from the pulp or slurry by adsorption onto activated carbon. CIL stands for carbon-in-leach. This is a gold extraction process called cyanidation where ...
The leaching process is easier when it comes for the execution. It is not a harmful process in comparison to the other pyrometallurgical methods. It does not lead to any sorts of gaseous pollutants. Disadvantages of Leaching are as Follows. The residual liquid waste that is generated from the leaching process is highly acidic in nature.
