Small batch Incineration of Gold-loaded anion exchange resin
I am a metallurgist experimenting "gold and silver extraction" from a Anion Exchange resin which was loaded with the water of an old mine stream.
I have spent many hours in the internet looking for a "Resin Incineration procedure"
My Laboratory has a Muffle Furnace good for 2000ªF.. I want to avoid the gold losses
that may occur in the off gasses and have not find reliable information and know-how
to ascertain the maximum Au/Ag recovery from the ashes.
You assistance regarding the above subject shall be appreciated.
