I had gold ore tailing which had been mercury amalgamated assay at 2-5g. I had do a leaching test and in the first 2 hours the recovery reach 90% and 12hrs at 75% and 24hrs at 64% and finally 52% @ 48hrs. The FCN is maintain at 1000ppm. The carbon content in this ore is 0.12%, S 0.33%, As 0.07%, Zn 65ppm, Pb 43ppm, Fe 17%, Cu 342ppm. The recovery rate decreased. May I know what is the possibility of the cause?
