Abstract

The article deals with the processes of determining the gold content in the products of the «Nevsky» mining and processing plant of«Druza» LLC. The activity of the assay and analytical laboratory to determine the content of gold in gold-containing products was investigated. The composition and structure of AAL GOK «Nevsky» LLC «Druza» is considered. The paper describes methods for determination of gold content in the products: atomic absorption method, titrimetrically method and Assay-gravimetric method. The principles of internal and external laboratory control in the AAL of a gold mining company are defined.

Keywords: gold recovery factory (GRF), assay and analytical laboratory (AAL), gold bar, sample, gold-containing ore, methods for determination of gold by atomic absorption titrimetrically assay and gravimetric.

Introduction

The Gold (79Au) is found in the environment in its own form, because of this, it acts as the first metal mastered by man of the stone age. The Gold (79Au) is an element of the 11 group of the Periodic table of D. I. Mendeleev [1, p. 21].

The chemical properties of gold are presented by the authors N. N. Greenwood and A. Earnshaw in the work «chemistry of elements» [2, p. 501].

Druza, LLC — one of the major gold mining companies, performing activity on the territory ofBodaibo district, Irkutsk region. In the last decade, there has been a clear trend towards putting into operation deposits with low concentrations of precious metals in the ore (1 gram per ton or less), the profitability of which is achieved only with large volumes of processing (millions of tons per year).

The required volume of technological testing and analysis of samples for gold extraction factories (GEF) - such deposits is extremely high and amounts to more than a hundred thousand samples per year. The volume of analyzed samples of operational Geosciences is no less high. As a result, the daily load on the analytical laboratory usually exceeds 500 samples [3, p. 10]. Taking into account the remoteness of gold mining enterprises and the seasonal nature of their supply, as well as the shortage of qualified personnel in the regions of Siberia and the Far East, the best solution is to automate analytical control processes.

Goals:

  1. Reducing the number of accidents;
  2. Improving the quality of measurements performed, reducing the number of defects;
  3. Unifying and standardizing workplaces;
  4. Increasing labor productivity by reducing the loss of time due to the organization of the workplace.
