主权项 1. A method of recovering gold from refractory ore comprising: heating refractory ore containing a sulfide and gold to form a hot ore; quenching the hot ore with an aqueous liquid containing a sulfate and calcium to form a hot liquid slurry; adjusting the pH of the hot liquid slurry to form a basic slurry; adding cyanide to the basic slurry to extract gold as a concentrated solution; and recovering the gold from the concentrated solution, the improvement comprising: adding gypsum seed crystals after the heating step and before the cyanide addition step in an amount sufficient to decrease gypsum encapsulation of gold.
