    Raincoat liners were first used in the late 1980s on gold ore heap fills in Costa Rica (Smith, 1996) to allow continuous wet season heap leaching in a very high-rainfall climate. The RCL covers provided several wet season improvements including: 1) reduced surplus water balance management, 2) less dilution of process solutions for …

  • Gold leaching from ores using biogenic lixiviants – A review

    Groudev et al. (1999) used solutions that contained amino acids of microbial origin and thiosulphate to leach the gold and silver from oxide ores that contained 3.5 g/t of gold and 14 g/t of silver. First, an alkaline solution (pH 10–10.5) was irrigated on the top of the heap to stabilize the pH.

  • Heap Leaching Practices

    While the altered nature of the ore is critical for exposing gold values and yielding excellent leach recoveries, the resultant fines produced also hinder leaching by limiting solution percolation in the heaps.
