Jan 17 2014 Going for gold Alternative processing methods January 17 2014 Features s11 In this climate the industry also now has to treat complex ores as the easier to process gold ores
With E B Millers process of refining impure gold with chlorine gas patented in Britain in 1867 and Emil Wohlwills electrorefining process introduced in Hamburg Ger in 1878 it became possible routinely to achieve higher purities than had been allowed by fire refining
