| Definitionskos:definition | With carbon-in-pulp, the ore is finely ground and the gold is solubilised using a cyanide leach in a series of tanks. The granular activated carbon is added to the leached slurry, where the carbon adsorbs the gold from the slurry solution and is then removed from the slurry by coarse screening. Often a series of five or six agitated tanks are used, where carbon and ore slurry are contacted in a staged countercurrent manner. This countercurrent operation increases the gold loading onto the carbon while maintaining a high recovery percentage. |
