The two gold refining methods most commonly employed to derive pure gold are: the Miller process and the Wohlwill process. The Miller process uses gaseous chlorine to extract impurities when gold is at melting point; impurities separate into a layer on the surface of the molten purified gold.
Read MoreGold processing - Gold processing - Refining: Gold extracted by amalgamation or cyanidation contains a variety of impurities, including zinc, copper, silver, and iron. Two methods are commonly employed for purification: the Miller process and the Wohlwill process. The Miller process is based on the fact that virtually all the impurities present in gold combine with gaseous chlorine more ...

Read MoreJul 18, 2013 The gold, together with minerals containing sulphur, arsenic and antimony, is concentrated by flotation, the sulphur, arsenic and antimony removed by roasting, or by biological or chemical treatment, and the gold recovered from the residues by cyanidation. Refining of mine bullion is usually carried out in refineries and not at individual mines.
Read MoreThe first step to refining raw gold is finding the gold in the first place. To do this, geologists use special maps to look for areas that are likely to produce gold deposits. They also look closely at rocks and natural formations in an attempt to determine if there might be gold beneath the surface.

Read MoreApr 06, 2016 Unfortunately, gold cyanidation was ineffective on refractory gold ores – which are made up of sulfide minerals that block the cyanide solution extracting the gold. An older, and very hazardous, extraction process called roasting was adapted and improved to work with this type of gold ore.

Read MoreGold is brought out of the earth as ore, and the mining process can alter its value. Another way the price of gold can change is during the refining process. These two big variables can make the difference between two seemingly identical pieces of gold. The changes caused by the mining and refining process go even farther than that.
