The spatial pattern of ore deposits and their geochemical anomalies can be used as significant clues to trace the ore-forming processes and the associated mineral system (Yilmaz et al., 2019; Cooke et al., 2020; Yousefi and Hronsky, 2023).The spatial distribution of mineralization and multi-element geochemical anomalies is the footprints left by …
For gold ores, the classical concept of degree of liberation described by Gaudin [14] loses its meaning when the processes used for their recovery and extraction are based on specific properties of this element, such as leaching by alkaline solutions of cyanide.The classical definition of "mineral liberation" shows that in a population of particles of different mineral …

The use of thiosulfate to extract gold from refractory ores is promising because of its non-toxicity and high selectivity. Sulfide minerals (i.e., pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite), major gold carriers in refractory gold ores, however, hinder gold extraction due to the high consumption of a lixiviant. In this study, a new method to improve gold extraction from sulfide …
