Stripping Gold Silver from Carbon Chemistry
Stripping of gold and silver from carbon is effected by means of two main processes (AARL and ZADRA). The main rateenhancing parameter in the stripping of gold and silver is temperature. A secondary rateenhancing parameter is ionic strength. (1) Stripping is usually conducted within a solution containing sodium cyanide ( – %) and caustic (1 – 3%). Several different analogous ...
