4.3 Thiosulfate method In the non-cyanide gold extraction study, the thiosulfate method is superior to the chlorination method and the thiourea method because it is leached in an alkaline medium. As early as 1957, the Soviet Union studied the dissolution thermodynamics of pure gold in ammonia thiosulfate solution. In 1972, Japan studied the catalytic effect of Cu2+ on S2O2-3 gold dissolution and its influencing factors. In 1981 the United States S2O2-3 leaching studies containing copper, manganese refractory gold ores have been. In 1983, the Soviet Union obtained a patent for the treatment of complex gold deposits containing copper and manganese with thiosulfate. The United States buttonmont company established a bacterial pretreatment (carbon and arsenic ) thiosulfate heap leaching plant in the Carlin Gold Mine.
Domestic research on thiosulfate leaching gold started late. After 1984, Shenyang Gold Institute, Shenyang Mining and Metallurgy Institute, Northeastern University, Institute of Chemical Metallurgy, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Central South University of Technology and other units carried out thiosulfate gold extraction Basic theoretical research and technical development work of the method. According to the report, although thiosulfate has the advantage of high leaching index, the leaching conditions are demanding and require leaching at a temperature of 50-60 ° C. The leaching system requires SO 2 or sulfite as a stabilizer and Cu 2+ as a catalyst. The test results of a copper-bearing gold concentrate in Shandong by thiosulfate method [18] show that for gold concentrate containing Au 153.62 g/t, Ag 443.5 g/t and Cu 4.71%, at normal temperature and pressure Under the condition, compared with the cyanidation method, the amount of the leaching agent was equivalent by the thiosulfate method, but the leaching time was shortened by 18 h, and the leaching rates of gold and silver were increased by 8.22% and 25.73%, respectively. At present, the domestic thiosulfate method gold extraction process is still in the engineering research stage, and needs to be further improved and promoted.
4.4 Method bromide and chlorine Similarly, bromo gold leaching is a stronger agent has received U.S. Patent [19] As early as 1881 Gusev (Shaff) bromide using gold leaching method. Later, the research was interrupted due to the widespread application of the cyanidation gold extraction process. Until the 1990s, with the emphasis on environmental protection, the bromination method re-emerged attention and research. In 1990, the United States introduced the organic bromide Geobrom series of agents: 3113, 3400, 5500, of which the Geobrom 3400 containing Br 34% had the best effect. In addition, Australia has achieved good results with inorganic bromide as a gold leaching agent.
In recent years, the relevant domestic units have carried out research on gold extraction of gold flotation gold concentrate containing 32.5 g/t by bromination method. The test results show that [20]: flotation gold concentrate is desulfurized by calcination at 600-650 °C. The leaching rate of gold and bromine in HCl medium for 12h can make the gold leaching rate reach 99%, but the research work is still in the laboratory stage, and the research in the United States and Australia has entered the practical stage of engineering.
5 Conclusion (1) China is one of the world's largest gold producers, and it is also a country with rapid development of gold production. Like other countries, China faces serious challenges in resources and environmental protection in the development of gold production.
(2) The Chinese government attaches great importance to the pollution of mercury and cyanide in gold production, and has taken many effective measures to alleviate and mitigate their pollution, but there is still a big gap compared with advanced countries.
(3) Accelerate the development of high-efficiency re-election equipment that can replace the amalgamation method, and actively develop non-cyanide gold extraction technology with industrial application prospects. Starting from cutting off pollution sources, we can better solve the contradiction between gold production development and environmental pollution.

Mining Rebar Rock Bolt

Left-hand full-thread bolt

Left-handed full-thread bolts are mainly used in mines where rock formations such as coal mines are not hard enough. bolts are generally used together with anchoring agents to achieve end anchoring or full anchoring in mines.

ANTO left-handed full-thread bolt is made of high-strength HRB500 or HRB600, which can provide high load-bearing capacity to protect mine safety.

Compared with other bolts, it can be installed using ordinary foreign drilling rigs, which saves installation costs.

Anto left-handed full-threaded anchor rod, the threads are distributed throughout the rod body, increasing the moving length of the nut, if the anchor rod support is loose in the later stage, tighten the nut, and the anchor rod restores the support force.


The one-way left-handed rebar bolt without longitudinal reinforcement can be used in all kinds of mines and underground projects, and is especially suitable for the support of coal tunnels with wire mesh. It has achieved good technical and economic effects.

The structural features of the anchor rod: the full length of the body has a rolled continuous thread, and the full length is of equal strength; the fastening end is provided with a prestressed gasket and a ball nut. It is superior to the bolt processed by round steel, and is a new type of bolt with material saving, labor saving and equal strength.
