Comparative study of auxiliary oxidants in the cyanidation of silver sulfide

Noticeably lower extraction of silver than gold in conventional cyanidation process has been commonly observed. Acanthite (Ag₂S) is one of the typical silver minerals with low solubility in aqueous medium, which result in low overall silver extraction. This thesis discusses the performance of hydrog...
