Pressure Oxidation Process • Oxidation of sulfides, such as pyrite (FeS 2) and marcasite (FeS 2) at high T and P in autoclaves • Release of encapsulated gold grains Yes Pressure Oxidation Refractory? No Gold Ores Cyanidation Carbon Adsorption Reduction • Pretreatment of "refractory" gold ores for cyanidation to be effective
