About this document

Gold Recovery from Balbach-Thum Slimes by edisanila is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document summarizes the process used by the Ontario Refining Company to recover gold, palladium, and platinum from Balbach-Thum slimes. Slimes are dissolved in acid and heated, precipitating silver chloride. The solution is treated to precipitate gold, which is refined electrolytically. Remaining solution is used to cement platinum metals before being concentrated and processed for metal recovery. Final gold purity is over 99.9%, while platinum metal concentrate assays around 80% precious metals.
