cyanide mineral processing disasters

Removal of Cyanide and Metals From Mineral Processing ...

handle mineral processing wastes that contain cyanide. Cyanide is used widely in leaching pre­ cious metal ores, and it is sometimes employed in flotation of sulfide miner­ als. For over 50 years, cyanide leaching has been the method of choice for dis­ solving finely disseminated gold and silver from their ores.

Incident, accident, catastrophe: cyanide on the Danube

It has been described as the worst disaster since Chernobyl. In January 2000, a retaining wall failed at the Aurul gold processing plant in Romania, releasing a wave of cyanide and heavy metals that moved quickly from one river to the next through Romania, Hungary, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Bulgaria, killing tens of thousands of fish and other forms of wildlife and poisoning ...

2000 Baia Mare cyanide spill - Wikipedia

Jan 29, 2010  The 2000 Baia Mare cyanide spill was a leak of cyanide near Baia Mare, Romania, into the Someș River by the gold mining company Aurul, a joint-venture of the Australian company Esmeralda Exploration and the Romanian government.. The polluted waters eventually reached the Tisza River and then the Danube, killing large numbers of fish in Hungary, Serbia, and Romania.

Cyanide hazards to plants and animals from gold mining and ...

Cyanide extraction of gold through milling of high-grade ores and heap leaching of low-grade ores requires cycling of millions of liters of alkaline water containing high concentrations of potentially toxic sodium cyanide (NaCN), free cyanide, and metal-cyanide complexes. Some milling operations res Cyanide hazards to plants and animals ...

Hazards from mineral processing There are many hazards that can result from pro-cessing of minerals. For example, the method that is widely used in South Africa for extraction of gold is the cyanidation process which uses cya-nide.19 The process involves dissolution of gold from the ore in a dilute cyanide solution and

The Current Status of Cyanide Regulations E MJ

Memories of past disasters reinforce present-day fears. By Professor Jan G. Laitos. The use of low-cost cyanide heap leaching techniques to recover metal from ores has allowed miners to profitably extract gold deposits. The chemical compound has on occasion been mishandled, and in some locations releases have created environmental problems.

Microbial destruction of cyanide and its related compounds is one of the most important biotechnologies to emerge in the last two decades for treating process and tailings solutions at precious metals mining operations. Hundreds of plant and microbial species (bacteria, fungi and algae) can detoxify cyanide quickly to environmentally acceptable levels and into less harmful by-products.

Cyanide is usually transported as a solid to the mine site, where it is dissolved for use in processing. Cyanide readily forms stable salts composed of cyanide, sodium, calcium, and potassium. Sodium cyanide (NaCN) is the most common salt used in mineral processing. Sodium cyanide is a white crystalline compound that is highly soluble in water.
