Calculating Cyanide Consumption
Computing Cyanide Consumption of a laboratory leach test may be done as in the following example: Ore taken, 250 grams. Ratio of solution to ore, 3:1 = 750 cc: 250 grams. Cyanide strength, % KCN. Or when working on the metric system, Ore taken 200 grams, ratio of solution to ore 3:1 = 600 cc: 200 grams, cyanide strength % KCN It should be noted that cyanide consumption as figured above
