Distribution of gold in soils and stream sediments and the use of cyanidation in exploration geochemistry

Obtaining samples that are both representative and small enough to be analyzed efficiently by standard analytical techniques is a common problem in gold exploration. The recent use of cyanide to extract gold from geochemical samples has allowed samples up to 1 kg or larger to be processed. Results o...
