Jan 01, 2021 Thiocyanate gold leaching requires an oxidant, such as Fe 3+, and pH values between 1 and 2 (Barbosa-Filho and Monhemius, 1989, Li et al., 2012a), or 1 and 3 (Munoz and Miller, 2000). The discrepancy between these pH ranges is thought to be attributed to the mineralogy of the ore samples, the oxidant type, and the oxidant concentration. Gold

Thiocyanate hydrometallurgy for the recovery of gold
Feb 01, 2012 Acid thiocyanate leaching of gold was investigated in the presence of ferric sulfate as an oxidant. According to leaching kinetic studies the initial rate of gold leaching is slow, and not significantly dependent on thiocyanate (0.05–0.2 M) and ferric (0.1–1.0 g/L) concentrations.Ferrous and cupric ions had no effect on leaching kinetics under the conditions studied.

University of Utah Institutional Repository Author
A possible alternative reagent to cyanide for gold leaching is thiocyanate, as first reported by White (1905). However, it was not until 1986 that research on the subject was resumed by Fleming (1986).
