Why Do You Need Environmentally Friendly Gold dressing Agent?
- The hazard of using sodium cyanide to extract gold:
1.Sodium cyanide is highly toxic and is life-threatening to human and animal, also pollutes the environment.
2.Sodium cyanide cannot meet technical and economical requirement of complex ore condition.
3.Slow leaching speed, long operation duration and results in low equipment utilization efficiency.

*Easy for storage and transportation
Case Study - Comparison Study of Environmentally Friendly Gold Dressing Agent and Sodium Cyanide in CIP Process
Please note that, according to the current process technology in the processing plant, the comparison study uses CIP process test, all leaching condition is same as processing plant, namely pulp density is 40%, grinding degree is 88%, PH value is 11-12.
