Abstract

In a process for the recovery of precious metals from sweepings, residues, ores, concentrates, &c., the material is smelted under reducing conditions without the use of collector metals, the proportions of lime, iron and silicon present being so adjusted that easily fusible slags are formed, the lime content of which exceeds the ferrous oxide content; whereby it is ensured that the precious metals do not appreciably migrate into the slag. If excess of sulphur is present it may first be removed by an oxidizing or sulphatizing roast. Sweepings may be briquetted with binders such as lime or pitch. The crude product, which may consist for example of a silver-gold-platinum-copper alloy, may be worked up by usual methods.
