Gold extraction - The gold could not be extracted from this compound with any of the then available chemical processes or technologies. In 1887, John Stewart MacArthur, working in collaboration with brothers Dr Robert and Dr William Forrest for the Tennant Company in Glasgow, Scotland, developed the MacArthur-Forrest Process for the extraction of gold ores.
This figure could be reduced to 0.4 kg thiourea/ton if 0.1 M thiourea was used; complete extraction of the gold then occurred within eight hours.Gold can be leached at a much greater rate by ...

This review outlines the chemistry of gold and thiourea, and discusses the possible use of thiourea in the processing of gold with respect to dissolution, solvent extraction, ion exchange, electrowinning, electroplating, electroless deposition, electro-etching and electropolishing.
The loaded organic phase was contacted with equal volume of 0.5 M thiourea solution containing 98 gpl sulfuric acid for 5 minute, and after separation of two phases, the organic phase was resent for extraction of gold from a new aqueous feed solution, and this procedure was repeated for 15 times.
Aug 01, 2004· The kinetics of thiourea leaching of Ovacik gold ore, Normandy Mining Co., were investigated, and the major leaching parameters were determined. Ovacik is the first project in what is potentially a large new mining industry in Turkey.
