Abstract: Provided is a method of recovering gold, and optionally silver, from gold-bearing, and optionally silver-bearing, double refractory raw material, comprising the steps of (a) leaching the gold-bearing, and optionally silver-bearing, double refractory raw material in a chloride containing leaching solution to dissolve gold and to obtain a leach solution comprising gold, and optionally silver, in solution, whereby the redox of leaching solution in the chloride leaching step is above 550 mV vs. Ag/AgCl; and simultaneously contacting the leach solution comprising gold, and optionally silver, in solution with a re-sorptive material to obtain a gold-containing, and optionally silver-containing, re-sorptive material; and (b) recovering gold and optionally silver from the gold-containing, and optionally silver-containing, re-sorptive material.

Abstract: Provided is a process for recovery of gold from gold-bearing raw materials comprising (a) leaching said gold-bearing raw material in a chloride containing leaching solution containing a total concentration of less than 120 g/L of halide ions, whereby the total concentration of chloride ions is less than 120 g/L of to dissolve gold and to obtain a leach solution comprising gold in solution; and simultaneously contacting the leach solution comprising gold in solution with a re-sorptive material to obtain a leach solution comprising gold-bearing re-sorptive material; and (b) recovering gold and optionally silver from the said gold-bearing re-sorptive material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing a gold-containing solution by chloride leaching from gold-bearing raw materials. A further object of the invention is to provide a method for recovering gold and optionally silver from the prepared gold-containing solution. The invention relates also to a process arrangement for recovering gold and optionally silver.
