the activated carbon product. The characteristics of the activated carbon product are thus dependent on raw material. A hard dense raw material results in a hard dense activated carbon with a micro-pore favouring structure. A soft, less dense raw material results in a soft light activated carbon with an open pore structure. 18

The activated carbon is advanced counter-current to the slurry flw by pumping a portion of the slurry upstream with airlifts. A high grade of gold on the carbon and a high gold recovery are obtained by stage-wise adsorption and a counter-current flow. The carbon in the first CIL tank thus contains the highest grade of gold. 3. Carbon elution
