The gold in the leached solution was recovered by the resin. The mechanism and reason for improving gold recovery and faster leaching speed were discussed. This study could offer a reference for the effective usage of gold by thiosulfate leaching gold from the ore. 2. Materials and methods2.1. Materials and reagents
Thiosulfate leaching of gold and silver has been known since 1858. In the Patera process, which was used for silver recovery for many years (Lidell 1945), silver was extracted from silver chloride by sodium thiosulfate leaching of chloridizing-roasted ores and concentrates. It was also recognized that unreacted silver sulfide could be leached ...
I recently read that sodium thiosulfate can be used for gold and silver leaching in much the same way as cyanide, but with no worries about toxicity. This intrigues me: aqua regia is a pain to work with, and cyanide is too toxic for an amateur, but thiosulfate is already one of my favorite reagents - cheap, nontoxic, and has so many uses.

The inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na 2 S 2 O 3.XH 2 O is called sodium thiosulfate. XH 2 O suggested that it is present in its hydrated form. Generally it is present in its a pentahydrate a form that is the chemical formula is Na 2 S 2 O 3.5H 2 O. It is a white colorless compound and it loses its water easily and dissolves well in water.
Most of the gold in the roasting slag is recovered by thiourea/cyanide leaching process, however, the leaching residues (gold tailings) obtained from thiourea leaching process or the sodium cyanide leaching still contain 9–16 g/t gold, which is difficult to recover and is usually discarded with the leaching residues; This phenomenon is common ...
However, ammonia also has negative effects on the development and commercial application of the thiosulfate leaching system (Jeffrey et al., 2001; Liu et al., 2018). …
A novel and sustainable technology to recover gold from thiosulfate medium using ionic liquids, i.e., Cyphos IL 101 (Cy IL 101) and Cyphos IL 102 (Cy IL 102) diluted in toluene, has been developed. Gold was extracted into the ionic liquid phase as [{P66614+}3{Au(S2O3)23–}] and stripped using NaCl solution. The recyclability of ionic liquids has shown promising …
The nature of gold (Au) ore deposits plays an essential role in determining the best gold recovery method as an alternative to cyanidation, considering environmental concerns. Thiourea (Tu) leaching of gold is an alternative lixiviant for treating sulfide gold ores and concentrates. The present study investigated the leaching behavior of Au from sulfide gold …
If you want to leach gold you need an oxidizing environment (add chlorine gas or clorox) until you reach an ORP of 1000mV, at a Ph of about 5, hopefully warm temperature and you will leach gold. Once in solution, separate liquid from solids, reduce the ORP to 100 -500 mV using NaHSO3 and your gold will precipitate.
Sodium Thiosulphate Gold Leaching. The gold industry has been seeking alternative reagents for leaching gold from low-grade ores for the past 25 years. The cost and …
What is the saturation limit of silver thiosulfate, I do not know, but when conducting certain analyzes of the silver content in waste containing silver bromide, chloride and iodide of silver, I was able to dissolve up to 20 grams of metallic silver in 1 liter of sodium thiosulfate solution (15-20% Na2S2O3).
Thiosulfate is a green gold leaching agent that shows great potential to replace the highly toxic cyanide. Ammonia is traditionally used as the copper ligand in thiosulfate …
Gold(I) has the closed shell 4f145d 10 electronic configuration, and therefore gold(I) complexes are diamagnetic and adopt regular structures. All known gold(III) complexes have the low-spin 4P45d8 electronic con figuration and are also diamagnetic. The preferred co-ordination number of gold(I) is 2 and that of gold(III)
Thiosulfate leach processes of precious metals. The use of thiosulfate (S 2 O 3 2-) for gold extraction has been reported as early as 1880 (Prasad et al., 1991). Sodium thiosulfate and ammonium thiosulfate are the two salts commonly used in gold leaching (Zhang et al., 2012). Thiosulfate is stable in alkaline medium.

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 bearing gold …
Thiosulfate leaching has been regarded as a promising alternative to cyanidation, but it still faces the challenge of the recovery of low content of gold from high concentrations of thiosulfate solutions.

Thiosulfate leaching is not a preferred method for several reasons. The leach solutions are generally in the range 5 to 30 grams per litre ammonium thiosulfate, around 7 grams per litre blue copper sulfate with ammonium hydroxide added to pH 9.5 to 10. This is a fairly narrow pH slot in which to operate.

Cyanidation as applied to ordinary gold and silver ores is a relatively simple process. When cyanicides {cyanide-consuming elements) are encountered in small amounts in the treatment of such ores, the various schemes already discussed, such as use of a lead salt or wasting barren solution, can usually be resorted to and successful operation maintained. …
