Heap Leaching
Heap leaching of gold and silver ores is conducted at approximately 120 mines worldwide. Heap leaching is one of several alternative process methods for treating precious metal ores, and is selected primarily to take advantage of its low capital cost relative to other methods. Thirty-seven different heap leach operations with a total …

The Treatment of the Carmack's Copper-Gold Ore by Acid Leaching …
Western Copper's Carmacks copper-gold deposit in the Yukon Territory, Canada contains copper and gold values. The copper mineralization is oxidized and acid soluble, and the gold is free milling and may be extracted by cyanidation. The current treatment plan is to recover the copper by heap leaching, and SX/EW. The challenge of this deposit is to be …
