Abstract:
      Based on thermodynamic theory, effects of alkali-ore ratio, oxygen concentration, residual oxygen rate, and roasting temperature on extraction of gold, silver, and copper from a complex gold concentrate containing multiple metals were simulated and calculated. Content relationship between substances through thermodynamic equilibrium relationship of independent reactions was determined. Reaction mechanism of sodium hydroxide roasting in complex gold ore was determined. The results show that the optimum roasting conditions include alkali-to-ore ratio of 10%, oxygen concentration of 25%, residual oxygen rate of 5%, and calcination temperature of 630 ℃. Thermodynamic conditions are verified by orthogonal experiment. Complex gold concentrate is roasted for 3 h under the optimum conditions followed by sulfuric acid leaching-cyanide process. Under these conditions, extraction rate of gold, silver and copper is 95.92%, 84.24% and 92.57%, respectively.
