Pressure oxidation overview
Acidic Pressure Oxidation – Whole Ore. The first gold pressure-oxidation plant commissioned was at the Homestake McLaughlin operation, CA, USA, in 1985 and served as the pioneering installation for whole-ore (acidic) treatment. The largest, by tonnes, of ore treated is Barrick Goldstrike, which is described below (Thomas and Williams, …
