Cyanide Consumption of a Gold-Bearing Pyrite Concentrate, using Ozone as a Pre-Treatment
Pyrite (FeS2), is the second most common host mineral for gold species. This association presents a great complexity, due to the gold can be finely disseminated or included at very fine size (0.1 to 1.0 µm), which requires extreme crushing conditions and strong oxidation in order to, liberate the go...

This association presents a great complexity, due to the gold can be finely disseminated or included at very fine size (0.1 to 1.0 µm), which requires extreme crushing conditions and strong oxidation in order to, liberate the gold, in a subsequent cyanidation step. In this work, cyanide consumption was evaluated, when a gold-bearing pyrite concentrate is submitted to a pretreatment with ozone prior to the conventional cyanidation. Tests were carried out at two different cyanide concentrations (1000 and 3000 ppm of CN)-, for a gold pyrite concentrate (67.44% of FeS2), where a significant decrease in cyanide consumption of 54% and 69% was found, when the mineral is submitted to an ozone treatment before cyanidation. These findings suggest that the use of ozone increases silver recovery and generates significant environmental impact. La pirita (FeS2) es el segundo mineral huésped más común de las especies de oro. Esta asociación presenta una complejidad diversa, ya que el oro puede encontrarse finamente diseminado ó incluido a tamaño muy fino (0.1 a 1.0 µm), por lo que requieren condiciones de trituración extremas y/u oxidación para liberar el oro. En este trabajo se evaluó el consumo de cianuro cuando un concentrado de pirita aurífero es sometido a un pretratamiento con ozono antes de la cianuración. Se realizaron pruebas de cianuración a 1000 y 3000 ppm de CN- para un concentrado de pirita con una ley de 67.44% de FeS2, observándose una reducción en el consumo de cianuro del 54% y 69% para dichas concentraciones de cianuro, cuando el mineral se somete a un pre-tratamiento con ozono. Estos resultados sugieren que el uso del ozono, además de incrementar la recuperación de plata, genera un impacto ambiental significativo.

Pyrite (FeS2), is the second most common host mineral for gold species. This association presents a great complexity, due to the gold can be finely disseminated or included at very fine size (0.1 to 1.0 µm), which requires extreme crushing conditions and strong oxidation in order to, liberate the gold, in a subsequent cyanidation step. In this work, cyanide consumption was evaluated, when a gold-bearing pyrite concentrate is submitted to a pretreatment with ozone prior to the conventional cyanidation. Tests were carried out at two different cyanide concentrations (1000 and 3000 ppm of CN)-, for a gold pyrite concentrate (67.44% of FeS2), where a significant decrease in cyanide consumption of 54% and 69% was found, when the mineral is submitted to an ozone treatment before cyanidation.
