GOLD RECOVERY METHOD, AND GOLD PRODUCTION METHOD USING SAME

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to efficiently recover gold in metal sulfide ores at low cost. This gold recovery method uses an acidic leaching solution including a chloride ion and/or a bromide ion as an anion and copper and iron as a cation, and includes: a step for heating and leaching gold from a base metal sulfide ore into the acidic leaching solution; a step for causing the adsorption of gold in the acidic leaching solution onto activated carbon; and a step for obtaining a concentrated gold solution by eluting with an alkaline solution the gold adsorbed onto the activated carbon.
