Next, rock samples are taken through drill testing and analyzed. Geologists and mining engineers use these samples to determine if gold actually exists, the size of the deposit and the quality of gold in the ground beneath. This information is used to determine if enough gold exists under the surface to make mining worthwhile. Step #4 - Type ...

Miners, including teenagers and children, are often exposed to mercury, which is used to separate gold particles from crushed rock and sludge. Mercury can be absorbed through the skin, ingested in food and water, or inhaled from vapors; it is highly toxic. It can cause a host of physical problems, including nerve and brain damage.

When you mix the finely powdered gold-bearing rock with some mercury, the gold within the rock dissolves, to form what's called a gold amalgam. The next step in the process is to separate the gold amalgam from any 'unreacted' mercury. We did this by squeezing the crude amalgam through a small piece of chamois leather.

Limestone is a rock composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ). It is the rock type most commonly used to make crushed stone in the United States. It holds this position because it is widely available and suitable for a greater diversity of uses than any other type of rock. Limestone can be used to make cement.

Gold is extremely dense, one of the heaviest of all metals. The specific gravity of gold is 19.6, meaning that it weighs 19.6 times more than an equal volume or mass of pure water. Iridium (one of the platinum group metals) is one of few metals that have a higher specific gravity than gold, being 22.6.

Using a heavy metal, smash the crushed rocks further until it is in the form of a powder. Ensure that the result is finer than sand. This process helps in getting all the gold from the rocks.

The best answer as to how to recover that gold depends on the amount of pyrite you intend to process. If you have only a few pounds, it can be roasted by heat in the open air and then mixed with a flux like sodium borate and melted with a collector metal like copper. The melt can be poured into a mold and the gold will now be alloyed in the copper.
