DetailsMerrill Crowe process means a technological operation for extraction of gold and/or silver after cyanide leaching. In the first step slurry containing gold and/or silver is separated into liquid and solid phases by washing the solids off in counter-current decantation thickeners. In the second step pregnant leach solution (liquid phase of ...
Details2 The Merrill-Crowe process is used to recover gold from a pregnant cyanide solution. This process involves precipitation with zinc dust and is . applicable particularly to gold ores with high silver content. Before gold can be precipitated with zinc dust, all solids must be removed from the pregnant solution. The Merrill-Crowe process has ...

DetailsThis paper presents an economic study comparing two gold recovery processes, zinc precipitation (Merrill-Crowe) and carbon-in-pulp (CIP). Capital, operating, and gold losses costs from an actual CIP plant study are compared to costs developed from a hypothetical Merrill-Crowe process flowsheet. ' Results indicate an overall economic advantage to …
