Recovery of Gold from Pregnant Thiosulfate Solutions by the Resin Adsorption Technique

This review is devoted to an integrated evaluation of the current use and future development of the resin adsorption technique in gold recovery from pregnant thiosulfate solutions. Comparisons are firstly made with other recovery techniques, including precipitation, activated carbon adsorption, solv...
