The crushed ore is mixed with soda ash to induce an alkaline 'pre-oxidation' process. After the desired oxidation level has been achieved, the ore will be rinsed sequentially with water and saturated lime solution, and then leached with cyanide to extract gold and silver. This accounts for 94% of the ore over the life of the mine.

The Merrill-Crowe gold recovery process removes precious metals from a cyanide solution by zinc precipitation. The pregnant solution is first clarified through filters such as horizontal leaf type clarifiers. By using a precoat system (with diatomaceous earth) an extremely clear solution can be produced.

MERRILL-CROWE. In certain occasions, such as when the ore silver content is higher than the gold content, the ADR circuit will be formed by a combination of filtration and Merrill-Crowe circuit. In this circuit, the gold and silver in solution can be separated from the slurry using a variety of filtration equipment such as drum, disk, linear and press filters.
