Gold Mining:
We
supply specialist grades of granulated activated carbon (GAC) for gold
mining service in Australia and New Zealand.
For gold mining we recommend using our Acticarb GC25PAU product.
GAC - Granulated Carbon Use
Highly activated carbon is used in the dissolved gold recovery process, either by introducing it directly into the CIL (carbon-in-leach) tanks or into separate CIP (carbon-in-pulp) tanks after leaching. The activated carbon adsorbs the dissolved gold from the leach slurry thereby concentrating it onto a smaller mass of solids. The carbon is then separated from the slurry by screening and subjected to further treatment to recover the adsorbed gold.
