The process of extraction of silver and gold from their respective mineral ore is called as cyanide process. It is named so because sodium cyanide solution is used where it forms a complex salt with C N − ions due to the presence of lone pair on the nitrogen atom. The Argentite ore (A g 2 S) contains silver. The ore dissolves in cyanide ...

Ore processing is a 24 hour operation. Ore is stockpiled at the processing plant, and the process begins by feeding the ore into a hopper with a loader. The ore is conveyed, and lime is added to raise its pH. Following crushing through a jaw crusher, the ore is fed into the semi autogenous grinding (SAG) mill along with water and steel balls.

The first step in this process is breaking down large chunks of rock into smaller pieces. At a mill, large machines known as crushers reduce the ore to pieces no larger than road gravel. The gravel-like material then enters rotating drums filled with steel balls. In these drums, the ore is ground to a fine slurry or powder.

Traditionally, once gold ore is mined from the ground, it's crushed to a powder and passed through a series of tanks in a process called leaching. Cyanide is then used to separate the gold from the ore into the leached solution. With the new process, the leaching and recovery process is done with chloride, one of two elements in table salt.
