به خواندن ادامه دهیدconcerns, cyanide leaching has been banned in many regions at present. Furthermore, the leaching period of cyanidation is usually as long as 24 h [3] and gold cannot be effectively leached from refractory gold ores. Thus, alternative lixiviants for gold have received more and more attention in recent years.
