The first sample Received 11 December 2009 contained 10.5 ppm gold with high arsenic and antimony. The second sample had a low gold content Received in revised form 27 February 2010 (2.5 ppm) but a high silver content (160 ppm). ... M.D., 2005. Advances in Gold Ore Processing, Developments in Mineral Processing.
Because of the rise in gold prices, some antimony ores should really be viewed as gold ores with antimony as a by-product. In this context, cyanide leaching …
: In the northwestern margin of the Youjiang basin (NWYB) in SW China, many Carlin-like gold deposits are highly antimony (Sb)-rich, and many vein-type Sb deposits contain much Au. These deposits have similar ages, host rocks, ore-forming temperatures, ore-related alterations and ore mineral assemblages, but the Au and Sb metallogenic …
Therefore, processing these complex ores typically involves a sequential approach, starting with the removal of antimony materials followed by the gold extraction [7,8]. However, gold–antimony ores often exhibit a refractory behavior due to the association of gold with sulfides, such as antimonite (Sb 2 S 3 ), pyrite (FeS 2 ), and ...
The choice of technology is considered depending on the predominance of the valuable compounds (gold or antimony) in the ore or the concentrate. For sulphide-antimony ores and concentrates with a ...
Antimony oxide ore beneficiation has become one of the world's largest mineral processing conundrums. In recent years, many experimental studies dealing with antimony oxide ore have been carried out, resulting in new technical achievements. Much attention has been paid to improving the mineral processing technology of antimony …
These similarities include similar mineralization ages (ca. ~140 Ma), ore-related alteration styles, ore mineral assemblages, ore host and possibly a magmatic-related ore-fluid source (Table 5; Su et al., 2008, 2009a, b, 2012, 2018; Cline et al., 2013; Hou et al., 2016; Chen et al., 2018). However, a key difference between the gold and …
Antimony Metallurgy. Antimony metallurgy is the technology that extracts antimony metal from antimony ores or produces antimony compounds. Antimony was discovered in the ancient time, and its name was derived from antimonite. In 1604, a process was invented to extract antimony and antimony sulfide as described by B. …
The largest Russian antimony ore deposits are reviewed analytically. The present-day physicochemical methods (nuclear quadrupole resonance, X-ray electron spectroscopy, multinuclear (13C, 15N, 31P) NMR) are used to develop innovative technologies. The innovative process for treatment of Au-Sbores of the Sarylakhsky and …
A basic technological flow sheet diagram for processing the flotation gold–antimony concentrate from the Olimpiadinskoe deposit was developed, including two stages: the production of metallic antimony and the gold extraction from the nitric leach …
The antimony in refractory gold ores was selectively removed by ultrasound with alkaline sodium sulfide. The removal rate of antimony reaches 94.50% under the optimum conditions: the ultrasonic power is 1500 W, the Na 2 S concentration is 2 mol/L, temperature is 55 °C and time is 60 min and the NaOH concentration is 1 mol/L. …
Main parameters studied were: Na2S concentration, NaOH concentration, pulp density and temperature.After leaching, antimony has been recovered by …
Gold-quartz-carbonate vein deposits occur in deformed greenstone belts. Techniques for the processing of antimony-bearing ores encompass a wide range of techniques from traditional hand sorting, which is dependent on plentiful and cheap labour, to technologically advanced, capital-intensive mineral processing.
To avoid the adverse effects of antimony on the cyanide leaching process used for the recovery of gold from refractory gold ore, a cleaner production process was proposed that would selectively ...
Abstract. The association of gold and antimony in many ores provides additional complications in the gold extraction process. Improvements in mineralogical identification and understanding of the ...
Introduction. Gold is a strategic precious metal that is widely used in ornamentation, currency reserves, and high-tech industries. According to the United States Geological Survey, globally identified gold reserves amount to 89,000 tons, with approximately one-third of that total contained in refractory ores (George, 2009).With the …

the ore. There are about 6.9 million tons of gold ore and 14 tons of gold in it. Gold in these ores is presented in the form of nanoscale particles. Size of individual gold particles is about 2.8 μm. All these predetermine the research on complex processing of the ores. The technology of complex processing of antimony-gold and gold-antimony ore
The pretreatment of an antimonial refractory gold and silver ore was investigated using alkaline sulphide leaching. The ore assayed 20 g/t Au and 220 g/t Ag and contained predominantly quartz/clay and barite, and to a lesser extent, sulphides such as pyrite, stibnite, sphalerite, zinkenite (Pb 9 Sb 22 S 42 ) and andorite (Sb 3 PbAgS 6 ).
It limits the use of the existing methods of gold-antimony materials processing [10] and leads to the fact that these concentrates are stacked on the special podiums or sold to the countries where ...
of end-of-life products or by recovering antimony from industrial process residues. Valuable residues are obtained by processing of gold, copper, and lead ores with high contents of antimony. Most of these residues are currently discarded or stockpiled, causing environmental concerns. There is a clear need to move to a more circular economy,
Orogenic antimony-gold deposits contribute significantly to the global antimony resource base. China's orogenic antimony-gold deposits are primarily in southern Tibet. Investigations indicate that antimony combines and migrates with sulfur hydroxides in ore-forming fluids. Previous research on fluid inclusions in orogenic …
There are many varieties of antimony ore, including antimonite, antimonite, antimony, antimony ochre, etc. Depending on the properties of the ore, the optional beneficiation processes include manual selection, gravity separation and flotation. The density, color and metallic luster of stibnite are significantly different from those of …
A complete technological process for extracting antimony from refractory gold ore was proposed. Antimony can be selectively removed from refractory gold ore …
The mineralization process in gold deposits suggests that it is better to enrich gold with arsenic and antimony rather than removing them from refractory gold ores . The smelting process also shows that there is a proportional relationship between the contents of antimony and gold in antimony-ferrous matte.
This study provides new data on Sb distribution and mobilization through the ore processing systems at two different active gold mines in New Zealand. The gold …
