6. Coaloil agglomeration. The coaloilgold agglomeration (CGA) method has been identified as an alternative to cyanide for largescale operations. More recently, it has also been promoted as an alternative to mercury amalgamation in the smallscale (artisanal) gold mining industry.
A gold recovery method, called the coal gold agglomeration (CGA) process, whereby hydrophobic gold particles are recovered from ore slurries into coaloil agglomerates, and the subsequent burning of these agglomerates to recover the gold, was developed some years ago.
Then, the CGA agglomerates can be recovered by flotation or other methods (, screening), dewatering to reject water and coal, and burning remained agglomerates to extract gold [36, 113]. ...

from its ores. The Coal Gold Agglomeration (CGA) process was developed some years ago and has the advantage in that gold is recovered by a procedure which has little or no negative impact on the environment. A gold ore containing liberated gold particles is contacted with coaloil agglomerates, whereby the gold is recovered into the coal/oil phase.
In industrial chemistry, coal gasification is the process of producing syngas—a mixture consisting primarily of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H 2), carbon dioxide (CO 2), methane (CH 4), and water vapour (H 2 O)—from coal and water, air and/or oxygen.. Historically, coal was gasified to produce coal gas, also known as "town gas".Coal gas is combustible and was used for heating and ...
In the last 25 years, different alternative processes have been investigated on gold deposits located in areas where environmental issues are a great concern. In 1988, gold particles were first recovered by successful pilot trial of coal‐gold agglomeration (CGA) process in Australia.
The coaloil gold agglomeration (CGA) process is another approach to recover fine particles. It was developed by the British Petroleum (BP) research team in the early eighties and is based on the natural hydrophobicity of coal and gold compared with most gangue materials . It allows a selective recovery of hydrophobic gold particles attaching ...

RECOVERY OF PARTICULATE GOLD BY COALOIL AGGLOMERATES A Thesis by JUANCHO PABLO S. CALVEZ B. Sc. Metallurgical Engineering Submitted for the degree of Master of Science School of Chemical Engineering Industrial Chemistry Faculty of Engineering UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES March 1998
Gold recovery processes that applied to different types of gold bearing ore deposits show that the type of deposits plays an important role for the selection of mineral processing technologies in the production of gold and other precious metals.
The study on gold recovering from amalgamation tailings by CGA process showed that about 88% gold can be captured by coaloil agglomerates (COA) and the gross gold recovery is more than 85% .

Coal gas is a flammable gaseous fuel made from coal and supplied to the user via a piped distribution system. It is produced when coal is heated strongly in the absence of air. Town gas is a more general term referring to manufactured gaseous fuels produced for sale to consumers and municipalities.. The original coal gas was produced by the coal gasification reaction, and thus the burnable ...
/879/1/012021 This study aimed to investigate the applicability of coaloil gold agglomeration (CGA) assisted flotation to recover gold from a refractory ore. The ore with the grade of 25 g/t was tested with the CGAflotation process in six different size fractions from 38 to 300 urn using different collector types and dosages.
The theoretical foundation of the CGA process is based on the difference in free energy and was expressed as a function of the interfacial tensions and threephase contact angles between gold, oil and water, together with the ratio of coaloil agglomerate to gold particle radii, as the free energy is a measure of the thermodynamic stability and ...
Oil serves as a bridge between coal and gold particles, used oils are diesel oil, kerosene and vegetable oil as agglomerating liquids to process goldcontaining materials, while coal acts as a carrier and facilitates effective separation of the goldbearing agglomerates. The CGA method has proven to be effective if used to process liberated ...

A process called coalgoldagglomeration (CGA) has been investigated for recovering gold since early 1980s Cadzow and Lamb, 1989, House et al., 1988. Although there are different derivative flowsheets for the CGA since then, the contacting and adhesion process of gold particles with agglomerates is the key element that always lies at the ...
Coal oil is made by heating cannel coal with a controlled amount of oxygen, a process called pyrolysis. Coal oil was used primarily as fuel for streetlights and other illumination. The widespread use of kerosene reduced the use of coal oil in the 20th century. Coking coal is used in largescale industrial processes. The coal is coked, a process ...

Froth flotation is one of the traditional methods for the recovery of gold like gravity, amalgamation, and leaching processes. The flotation process gets rather complicated when gold particles become finer due to their physicochemicomechanical relations (ElRahiem 2014).The coal gold agglomeration process (CGA) is considered an appropriate process for the problematic particles containing ...
Abstract The present work deals with gold grains recovery by means of coaloil agglomerates. Among several hydrophobic materials used, a specific type of coal proved to be more suitable to form agglomerates. Diesel oil, kerosene and vegetable oils were used as agglomerants.
The coal gold agglomeration (CGA) process is a novel gold recovering technique, which has following advantages. Studies on gold recovery from amalgamation tailings by CGA process shows that about 88% gold can be captured by coaloil agglomeration and the gross gold recovery is more than 85%.
This paper describes the use of coaloil agglomerates in flotation to increase the gold recovery from an ore containing fine gold particles. The effects of operating parameters on gold flotation recovery such as oil type, particle size of agglomerating material, agglomerate/ore and oil/ore ratios were investigated. The studies showed that petroleum oils are more effective than vegetable oils ...

The use of coaloil agglomerates to recover gold became known to public when a patent, was granted to BP Australia Ltd in 1986 [7]. This process, together with two other patent applications by BP, became known as the CoalGold Agglomeration (CGA).
On account of above problems, the coaloil agglomeration (CGA) method, whereby hydrophobic gold particles are recovered from ore slurries into coaloil agglomerates, and a subsequent recovery through smelting or cosmelting of these agglomerates, has been generally recognized by the researchers and companies (Cilingir and Sen, 2000; Marciano et ...
