【発明の詳細な説明】 本発明は金鉱石からの金の回収法に関するものである。[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a method for recovering gold from gold ore.
金鉱石からの金の回収はいくつかの方法で実施されてい

リーはシアンを除去したのち廃棄される。Gold recovery from gold ore is carried out by several methods, one of which is CIP (Carbon in Pu1).
There is a method known as the p) method. In this method, gold ore is first pulverized in an aqueous cyanide solution to create a slurry (
pulp). This slurry is stirred for ten to several tens of hours while blowing air to dissolve most of the gold in the ore. Next, activated carbon is introduced into this slurry, and the dissolved gold in the slurry is adsorbed onto the activated carbon. Finally, activated carbon is separated and recovered from the slurry I2, and the slurry is discarded after removing cyanide.

方法に関するものである。In this CRP method, recovery of gold from a slurry using activated carbon is performed by a countercurrent multistage contact method. That is, connect a large number of adsorption tanks in series, supply slurry to the front end of the tank row and activated carbon to the rear end, and move both in countercurrent. According to this method, the newly supplied activated carbon with the highest adsorption capacity comes into contact with the slurry with the lowest total concentration, thereby increasing the recovery rate of gold from the slurry. The present invention relates to a method for further improving the gold recovery rate in this CIP method.

されるスラリー中の全濃度は低下する。The adsorption of gold by activated carbon in the CIIP method is influenced by coexisting free cyanide, and the lower the cyanide concentration, the larger the equilibrium adsorption amount of gold. Figure 1 shows an example of this relationship.
nl, activated carbon (coal-based, grain Kf-3; bs mesh passage 9.5'% or more, surface area +!s o m2/y)
The graph shows the relationship between the total concentration in the liquid and the amount adhering to the activated carbon when 200~9/s~ was added and stirred for 72 hours at 2J-°C. As is clear from this figure, during countercurrent multistage contact in the CIP process, the lower the cyanide concentration of the slurry, the lower the total concentration in the slurry discharged from this process.

高いほど促進される。However, in the process of countercurrent multistage contact, gold is adsorbed by activated carbon and at the same time gold is eluted from the ore by free cyanide. This elution of gold is accelerated as the cyanide concentration increases.

体として必ずしも有利ではない。Therefore, reducing the free cyanide concentration of the slurry and subjecting it to countercurrent multistage contact may be advantageous for the adsorption of gold from the slurry, but it may have a disadvantageous effect on the elution of gold from the ore, and is not necessarily advantageous as a whole. isn't it.

濃度が高いままなので、金の溶出は正常に行なわれる。The present invention solves this problem by reducing the free cyanide concentration of the slurry in the latter half of the countercurrent multistage contact. According to this method, in the first half of the process where the gold content in the ore is high and therefore the amount of gold eluted is relatively large, the concentration of free cyanide remains high, so that the gold leaches out normally.
一方、この工程の後半では、遊離シアン密度が低く吸着

の回収率を向上させることができる。On the other hand, in the latter half of this step, the slurry is brought into contact with activated carbon in a state where the density of free cyanide is low and is favorable for adsorption, so the total dissolved concentration in the slurry discharged from this step can be reduced. Therefore, according to the method of the present invention, the adsorption of gold is promoted without inhibiting the elution of gold, so that the recovery rate of gold can be improved.

Formation of a slurry by mixing with an aqueous solution of hisodium, elution of gold by blowing air, etc. are carried out according to conventional methods. For example, the sodium cyanide 2+ρ degree of the slurry is set to 00 to θ2S%, and the slurry is stirred while blowing air for 20 to SO hours using an elution device having several stirring tanks connected in series. The slurry discharged from the elution device is supplied to an adsorption device having several, for example, 4 to 9 stirring tanks connected in series, and is sequentially moved downstream. Additionally, if desired, the concentration of the slurry may be adjusted prior to feeding to the adsorption device. Alternatively, a part of the aqueous solution in which gold is dissolved may be separated from the slurry, and gold may be recovered from this aqueous solution in a separate process.

The cyanide concentration can be easily reduced at room temperature by adding an oxidizing agent such as sodium hypochlorite to the slurry to decompose free cyanide. The amount of the oxidizing agent to be added may be a theoretical amount to one times the amount of free sodium cyanide. At this time, when the pH of the slurry is lowered to about 7S to 7g, the decomposition of cyanide is significantly accelerated. Cyan concentration reduction takes place in the second half of the adsorption device. For example, in the case of an apparatus consisting of 6 stirring tanks, the oxidizing agent may be supplied to any of the y-th tanks, but the contact time between the slurry with a reduced cyanide concentration and the activated carbon is 3 hours. It is preferable to select the feeding position so that the
