DESCRIPTION:
"Pure Gold In and Of Itself" according to Alan Burnes. This book is an amazingly detailed exposition of gold concentration and extraction. Many books are long on the theory and very thin on the engineering issues involved. Other books are enhanced process diagrams and cookbooks and give little theory. This book is a treasure with a perfect blend of theory and the engineering process to utilize that theory.Although I have a strong sciences background and Pure Gold In and Of Itself This book is an amazingly detailed exposition of gold concentration and extraction.

Excellent texbook, has a a complete an updated review of operations in addition to the basic The texbook has complete details about basic, in addition shows real cases and I can see a solid knoledge about industrial operatioanl practices. This ensemble is very useful for starter or professionals working in the industry of extractive metallurgy. Excellent and timely This book is an excellent presentation and reference for those interested in the process meatllurgy and chemistry of gold and other precious metals. It is expertly researched and written and brings together a body of information that was previously available in only fragmented parts.
It provides the broad base of knowledge that is now required by all those working in the gold extraction and gold processing industries. The Chemistry of Gold Extraction is an extensively revised and comprehensively updated edition of the well-known reference first published in 1992. The book bridges the gap between research and industry by emphasizing the practical applications of chemical principles and techniques.The technical reference includes in-depth discussions on:Historical DevelopmentsOre Deposits and Process MineralogyProcess SelectionPrinciples of Gold HydrometallurgyOxidative PretreatmentLeachingSolution Purification and ConcentrationRecoverySurface Chemical MethodsRefiningEffluent TreatmentIndustrial Applicat
