THIO-GOLD® | Ammonium Thiosulfate Solution
Thio-Gold Series products are aqueous thiosulfate solutions that effectively act as lixiviation agents in gold leaching applications.
Thio-Gold is an environmentally friendly and safe alternative to cyanidation in gold processing. Moleko is part of Tessenderlo Kerley, Inc. which holds numerous patents for thiosulfate applications.
Technological Advantages
- Lower to null toxicity
- Greater efficiency with gold deposits associated with pregrobbing ores
- Performance: Thio-Gold works in stirred tank reactors and heaps
- Similarities: The size and type of equipment needed for Thio-Gold leaching is similar to conventional cyanide leaching systems
Why Use Thio-Gold?
- Eco-friendly: Reduces the impact on the environment compared to the cyanidation process
- Safe: Thio-Gold leaching process is alkaline, so there are no concerns with corrosion and materials used in construction
- Non-toxic Alternative: Can be used where cyanide is not permitted
