Ultra fine grinding of silver plant tailings of refractory ore using
Ultra fine grinding of the plant tailings of a refractory silver ore was studied using a laboratory type vertical stirred media mill. Preliminary tests confirmed that ultra fine grinding substantially improves the extraction of silver from the tailings in cyanide leaching (i.e. 36% Ag extraction rate from the as-received tailings with d 80 of 100 μm, c.f. 84% …

The physical lock-up of gold can be overcome by ultra-fine grinding of the ore to liberate the locked gold or enable the complete destruction of the mineral when present in the solid solution within the mineral matrix in the form of molecular or "invisible" gold [16, 17]. However, the ultra-fine grinding is a physical method for the exposed ...
