A process called coalgoldagglomeration (CGA) has been investigated for recovering gold since early 1980s Cadzow and Lamb, 1989, House et al., 1988. Although there are different derivative flowsheets for the CGA since then, the contacting and adhesion process of gold particles with agglomerates is the key element that always lies at the ...
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The gold mining industry has mainly relied upon the use of highly polluting chemicals, such as mercury and cyanide to recover gold from its ores. The Coal Gold Agglomeration (CGA) process was developed some years ago and has the advantage in ...
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377CGA process isbased onthe hydrophobic characteristic of gold particles which are free or readily liberated and includes the selective recovery of gold particles by coaloil agglomerates (Marciano et al. 1994; Moses and Petersen 2000). First, the coaloil agglomerates are preformed by intensive agitation of coal and oil in slurry.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377In gold recovering processes, coal gold agglomeration (CGA) is a novel process which has many advantages compared with conventional CIP/CIL, such as better environmental protection, lower operation and capital cost. The study on gold recovering from amalgamation tailings by CGA process showed that about 88% gold can be captured by coaloil agglomerates(COA) and the grass gold recovery is more ...

The Coal Gold Agglomeration (CGA) process was developed some years ago and has the advantage in that gold is recovered by a procedure which has little or no negative impact on the environment. A gold ore containing liberated gold particles is contacted with coaloil agglomerates, whereby the gold is recovered into the coal/oil phase.
