Abstract:
A novel study has been done to investigate the recovery of gold by using activated carbon from ammoniacal thiosulphate solution. For recovery of gold, 0.1 gm ore was taken and added 100 ml thiosulfate solution of 5% concentration in a pyrex beaker was placed on a magnetic stirrer for 120 minutes at 150 degrees temperature. The next step is to recover gold from the thiosulphate solution. 0.3 g prepared column of activated carbon is used for 1 hour. The recovery method will be adsorption and gold get recovered on the surface of activated carbon. This dissolution is used for AA (atomic absorption) analysis. The absorption of standards and ore solutions are checked by the AA (atomic absorption). The graph of absorption vs concentration in ppm is obtained.
