Chinese scientists have developed a rapid e-waste mining method that extracts gold in under 20 minutes at around one-third of ...

An interdisciplinary team of experts in green chemistry, engineering and physics at Flinders University in Australia has developed a safer and more sustainable approach to extract and recover gold ...

EXCLUDING mechanical, smelting, and amalgamation processes, the methods of extracting gold from its ores may conveniently be grouped together under the heading of wet or chemical methods. In these, ...

At Flinders University, scientists have cracked a cleaner and greener way to extract gold—not just from ore, but also from our mounting piles of e-waste. By using a compound normally found in pool ...

Refractory gold ores present significant challenges to conventional extraction methods. In these ores, gold is tightly encapsulated within sulphide minerals or locked by carbonaceous matter, thereby ...

Forward-looking: A team of Australian researchers has unveiled a breakthrough method for extracting gold that could dramatically reduce the environmental and health hazards long associated with mining ...

Researchers have developed a technique to recover and recycle toxic cyanide. The technique is set to change the gold mining industry, making the extraction process more sustainable and efficient.
