The pyrite concentrate was treated for different periods of time with 12-weeks-adapted Thiobacillus ferrooxidans before cyanide leaching. The bioleaching of the concentrate before cyanide leaching increased the gold extraction from 32 to 95% and that of silver from 48 to > 98%.

An aeration stage was applied both at the head of copper flotation (copper rougher feed) and after regrinding of the copper rougher tailings, before gold/pyrite selective flotation.

They present environmental threats such as the acid mine drainage. Chemical analysis showed that the major element of these tailings is Pyrite. The processing of the latter eliminates much of the sulfur.

Mining tailings of these ores contain considerable amounts of residual gold and toxic cyanide ion. These tailings are stored in massive ponds (tailing dam) containing considerable amounts of gold and pose environmental hazards.
