The low-grade component will be treated in a 5 Mtpa heap leaching exercise with a head grade of 0.4 gpt AuEq, commencing in Year 3. Gold production from the flotation circuit is expected to be 110-120,000 oz p.a., while the heap leach could contribute another 35,000 oz p.a. based on a 65% recovery rate.

Gold Heap-Leach Modeling Project Description. Itasca developed a numerical model to estimate gold (Au) production from heapleach operations. The objective was to simulate Au heap leaching using a model based on fluid flow and mass-transport (hydrodynamic modeling) in a partially saturated pad, and quantitatively assess monthly production of gold-cyanide production (AuCN).

Nevada was the "birthplace" of modern gold heap leaching in the late 1960s, and is only recently giving up its dominance of this technology. Other very large gold districts – notably the pre-Cambrian shield areas of Canada, Australia, and South Africa – show relatively few heap leaches. There are several reasons for this geographic ...

16. Oxide Gold Processing • Process test work shows very low gold recovery by gravity so process must be by cyanide leaching. • Process options are: – Carbon in Leach (CIL) on finely ground ore – Heap leach on coarsely crushed ore • Most of the work to date has been on CIL but a heap leach column test gave a high, rapid gold recovery.
On completion of the study in January 2015, Lycopodium was awarded the EPCM contract to develop a Heap Leach facility capable of treating 7.5 Mtpa of gold-bearing ore. With Engineering and Procurement services completed, Lycopodium personnel mobilised to site in July 2015 to commence Construction Management services.
