How best can I process gold in kaolin or china clay (1 reply and 1 comment)

I have a few tons of china clay, and a sample showed good results, but then the clay is fine and may give me problems processing it. Is heap leaching the best way to have the highest recovery?

You can consider an agglomeration process ahead of the heap leaching process. Follow the link below to read some technical information. It is necessary to perform a testing program to determine the operating parameters (e.g. particle size, cement, NaCN consumption)
