Description

A kind of is the thiosulfate gold extracting method of oxygenant with iron (III) prussiate salt
Technical field
The invention belongs to the hydrometallurgy field; Relating to a kind of employing thiosulphate for carrying gold reagent, is oxygenant extracts gold from ore method with iron ( ) prussiate salt.
Background technology
Cyanide process is the main method that present gold extracts.Yet sodium cyanide is hypertoxic chemical, and the sodium cyanide that remains in the tailing dam produces some toxic cyanide and can cause serious environmental problem with soaking in the golden process, and some countries and regions have forbidden in gold extracts, using prussiate for this reason.In addition, cyanide process is difficult to handle to complicated gold mines such as cupric carbon containings.Substitute in the reagent at prussiate that recent researches is crossed, thiosulphate is considered to replace the method that has application prospect most of cyanide process with its characteristics such as quick, nontoxic.In order to improve the golden speed of soaking, a lot of bibliographical informations will add copper (
Figure 79146DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
) ion in thiosulfate solution, ammoniacal liquor is formed the leach liquor that mixing solutions extracts as gold.Yet, in the presence of ammoniacal copper complex ion, soaking in the golden process thiosulphate consumption and sharply rise, it is too high that reagent consumes excessive cost, golden leach liquor complicated component simultaneously, the gold that causes getting in the leach liquor is difficult to efficient recovery.Many researchers adopts to add sulfate radical and reagent such as inferior sulfate radical and sulfonium ion, inflated with nitrogen reduction dissolved oxygen or do not have cuprammonium and exists methods such as adopting the pressurization leaching down to carry out big quantity research in the hope of the consumption of reduction reagent; These methods have played certain effect on control thiosulphate consumption; But energy consumption height or complex manufacturing still are difficult to realize scale operation.Also have some bibliographical informations to use oxalate, YD 30 (EDTA) salt to be additive; Thiosulphate consumption is soaked in the golden process in reduction also played certain effect; But need strict control pH value between 4.2~6.4; The pH value is lower than 4.2 o'clock thiosulphates and is decomposed into elemental sulfur and sulfurous gas, and the pH value is higher than at 6.4 o'clock has ferric hydroxide colloid or deposition to generate.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is directed to Cu 2+-NH 3-S 2O 3 2-Mix big, the leaching system complicacy of gold leachate reagent consumption in soaking golden process; Propose a kind of new thiosulphate and soak golden method; Promptly adopting iron (III) the cyanide ligand ion that stability is better, oxidizing potential is higher is oxygenant; With thiosulfate anion is golden complexing agent, and to add a small amount of thiocarbamide be that leaching agent is formed gold leachate and extracted the gold in the ore, realizes through following technical proposal.
A kind of is the thiosulfate gold extracting method of oxygenant with iron (III) prussiate salt; Process the following step: broken wet-milling to fineness-200 order of auriferous placer or rock ore deposit is accounted for 85~95%; The mass concentration of regulating ore pulp is 30~50%; In ore pulp, add solution, thiosulphate and the thiocarbamide of iron (III) prussiate salt again, the concentration that makes thiosulphate in the whole system is 0.01~2mol/dm 3, iron (III) prussiate salt concentration 0.1~1.0mmol/dm 3, thiocarbamide concentration be 0.001~10.0mmol/dm 3, the pH value of regulation system is 8~13 then, and agitation leach 9~24 hours, reclaims the gold in the leach liquor by ordinary method at last.
Said iron (III) prussiate salt is the Tripotassium iron hexacyanide or the Trisodium hexacyanoferrate.
The solution of said iron (III) prussiate salt is that iron (III) prussiate salt is water-soluble, and being mixed with the pH value is the solution more than 9.
The pH value of said regulation system is 8~13 to be to use alkali to regulate, like sodium hydroxide, Pottasium Hydroxide.
Said thiosulphate is the salt that contains thiosulfate anion.
Thiosulfate gold extracting method provided by the invention has following advantage and effect:
(1) reagent consumption is low, adopts Cu for copper gold 2+-NH 3-S 2O 3 2-The leaching system, the thiosulphate consumption is up to 20~30kg/t ore; And adopt the consumption of present method thiosulphate can reduce to below the 7kg/t ore.
(2) the pH variation is little to gold leaching influence, general Cu 2+-NH 3-S 2O 3 2-The leaching system pH require to be controlled at about 10, pH is too high, gold leaching rate significantly reduces; And system pH of the present invention is at 8~13 o'clock, and gold leaching rate and thiosulphate consumption all do not have big variation, need not the pH value that leaches system is done accuracy controlling, applicable to scale operation.
(3) golden leaching velocity is fast, and sample ore flexibility is strong, all can effectively handle cupric, carbon containing gold mine.
(4) golden leach liquor component is simple; Because the consumption of thiosulphate is less; Can not produce a large amount of polythionic acid roots and other oxygen sulfur compound; And the associated metal under the alkaline condition in the gold mine can not dissolve basically with other impurity such as Fe etc. and get into golden leach liquor, helps the recovery of gold in the golden leach liquor, and the lean solution that reclaims gold is easy to recycle.
Adopt method provided by the invention from ore, to extract gold, gold leaching rate is high, and technological operation is simple; Be easy to control, the thiosulphate consumption is low, and golden leach liquor composition simply helps the wherein recovery of gold; Applied widely; PH has good leaching effect between 8~13, fast for cyanide process difficult-treating gold mines such as carbon containing, cupric gold leaching velocity, and can keep quite high gold leaching rate.The whole free cyanogen that does not use severe toxicity in the golden process of carrying is followed ion (CN -), do not discharge free cyanogen with ion (CN yet -) wait hypertoxic refuse, environmentally friendly.
