ARSENIC IN GOLD LEACHING
What happens to arsenic during cyanidation depends what form it is in; Stibnite, orpiment, arsenopyrite, realgar. If arsenic is present, regardless of what form, solubility increases with higher pH. Environmentally; during or after detox, the arsenic can be precipitated via ferric sulphate leaching to produce the highly insoluble ferric arsenates which will settle, sometime requires the use of ...
