Özet

Dissolution of precious metals from Ovacik gold ore py ammoniacal thiosulphate has been investigated. The effect of parameters such as solid / water ratio, S2O32-, Cu2+, NH3, SO32- concentrations and leaching time have been experimentally determined. In optimum leach conditions 82 % Au and 83 % Ag recoveries have been obtained.
