Activated carbon adsorbs the gold particles and lets the rest of the slurry pass through. Ethanol is then used to desorb the gold from the activated carbon. In the gold recovery process, a 6×12 coconut shell is used. Coconut shell especially is preferred as it is harder and will handle the abuse of the process.

To "activate" these carbon sources, first, the coconut shells or coal chunks are heated without oxygen to 1,100-1,650 degrees Fahrenheit until they burn down into a carbon char. This char is then treated chemically, usually with argon and nitrogen, before once again being heated – this time to 1,100-2,200 degrees.
