In response to this incident on 30 January 2000, the International Cyanide Management Code (ICMC) was created. Many companies have signed up to the code, a voluntary framework that all major gold mines use to help regulate their use, handling and disposal of sodium cyanide.. According to the ICMC, the concentration of cyanide used …

By 1907, global annual production of gold had doubled because of an increased use of cyanide; it continues to this day to be the primary leaching method in the gold mining industry [2]. Today, over one million metric tonnes of cyanide – representing 80% of total production – are used annually by the chemical industry for the production of ...

Cyanide is a cheap but highly toxic reagent that is very effective in leaching gold from low-grade minerals and mining wastes. Therefore, cyanidation is the most widely used method for the extraction of gold from mining wastes. Despite its advantages, is considered an unacceptable and highly hazardous approach.

This study presents the novel idea of a cyanide-free leaching method, i.e., glycine-ammonia leaching in the presence of permanganate, to treat a low-grade and copper-bearing gold tailing. Ammonia played a key role as a pH modifier, lixiviant and potential catalyst (as cupric ammine) in this study. Replacing ammonia with other pH …
