The process of sorption cyanidation plays a vital role in the extraction of precious metals such as gold from ores. By combining the principles of sorption, where molecules are adsorbed onto a surface, and cyanidation, a method of extracting gold from ore using cyanide solution, this technique has been widely used in the mining industry. However, recent advancements in technology have introduced the integration of acoustic sonic treatment into this process, opening up new avenues for research and innovation in the field of ore extraction and processing. Acoustic sonic treatment involves the application of high-frequency sound waves to a solution or material. In the context of ore processing, this treatment has shown promise in enhancing the efficiency of various processes, including leaching and extraction. By subjecting samples to acoustic sonic waves prior to sorption cyanidation, researchers aim to improve the overall recovery rates of precious metals and optimize the extraction process.
