Thiourea leaches gold more rapidly than cyanide, and is less toxic; forms cationic complexes; and can be utilised on ores refractory to cyanide and in heap and in situ leaching [39]. However, as previously explained, research gaps and costs have hindered its wide-scale adoption as a leach reagent in the gold mining industry.

Gold leaching with thiourea has the advantages of fast speed (four to five times faster than that of cyanide leaching) and a high leaching rate for refractory gold ores (Choi et al., 2017, Lee et al., 2018). Thiourea is stable under acidic conditions and can form coordinating compounds with Au ions in the presence of an oxidizing agent.

The cyanide heap leach process is an efficient, low cost method of recovering gold and silver from low-grade ore. Average ore grades recovered by heap leaching are 0.9 grams of gold per metric ton of ore (0.03 oz/short ton), with an extreme cutoff grade of 0.2 grams of gold per metric ton (0.006 oz/short ton) at the Round …

The concentration of gold leaching tailings, where the diameter of tailings is 100–600 μm, is 35%, pH is 10.78, the initial cyanide concentration in the solution is 30.66 mg/L, and the cyanide leached from the leach tailings is 11.78 mg/L. The total carbon content of tailings is 2.47–6.67%, in which the organic carbon content is 1.47–4.29%.

A process called "Cyanidation", or cyanide leaching, has been the dominant gold extraction technology since the 1970s. In this process sodium cyanide, in a dilute solution of ranging from 100 ppm to 500 ppm or 0.01% to 0.05% cyanide, is used to selectively dissolve gold from ore.

Chlorine, bromine, and iodine are well-known lixiviants for leaching gold, as reviewed by Tran et al. (2001). Chlorination was applied extensively in the late 19th century before the introduction of the cyanidation process. Bromine/bromide for leaching gold from ores was reported as early as 1846.
