Abstract. Thiocyanate (SCN –) is a promising alternative to cyanide as a lixiviant for gold extraction and is 1000 times less toxic than cyanide.In this study, the following leaching parameters were tested to optimize the gold recovery for the first time from an oxide ore using the response surface methodology: initial thiocyanate concentration (10–500 mM), initial Fe 3+ …
