Eco-Goldex
A Non-Cyanide Approach to Gold Leaching
Eco-Goldex is a non-cyanide gold-leaching solution developed for suitable ore bodies and electronic-waste processing applications.
An Alternative to Traditional Cyanide Leaching
Eco-Goldex uses a multi-component leaching chemistry, rather than the single cyanide ion (CN⁻) used in conventional cyanide leaching, to form soluble gold complexes from suitable ore and electronic-waste material.
Suitability depends on ore mineralogy, project conditions and site requirements. We work with customers to assess whether Eco-Goldex is an appropriate fit for their specific operation, supported by laboratory testing where required.
Eco-Goldex leaching mechanism
Ore and Electronic-Waste Gold Recovery
Suitable Ore Bodies
Applicable to select ore types where cyanide alternatives are preferred or required, subject to project-specific assessment and testing.
Electronic Waste
Suitable for select e-waste gold-recovery applications as part of a considered, site-specific extraction process.
Why Customers Consider Eco-Goldex
No Toxic Gas Emission
Formulated to avoid the toxic gas hazards associated with cyanide handling.
Non-Cyanide Chemistry
Uses a multi-component leaching mechanism rather than a cyanide ion.
E-Waste Applicability
Suitable for select electronic-waste gold-recovery applications, subject to assessment.
Considered Leaching Approach
Offered as part of a responsible approach to gold extraction, assessed per project.
Evaluating Eco-Goldex Against Conventional Cyanide Leaching
Eco-Goldex is intended as an alternative approach to gold leaching, not a guaranteed replacement in every application. We recommend the following factors are assessed for each project.
Ore Mineralogy
Leaching performance depends on ore type and gold association.
Site Conditions
Local regulations, water use and existing infrastructure affect suitability.
Laboratory Testing
Bench and pilot-scale testing is recommended before full-scale adoption.
Safety and Technical Disclaimer
Gold-leaching products must be assessed and operated by appropriately qualified personnel in accordance with local regulations, laboratory testing, site conditions and the manufacturer's technical guidance.
