Kinetics of sulphide conversion to thiosulphate and gold dissolution study by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance

The kinetics of the oxidation of pyrite sulphide to a thiosulphate reaction were studied using a pyrite concentrate oxidized in an alkaline medium at an oxygen overpressure between 10 and 40 psig at a temperature of 80ºC. Sodium hydroxide was used to neutralize the acid produced as a result of the p...
