The amalgam is then heated, and the mercury evaporates, leaving the gold behind. In Whole Ore Amalgamation, mercury is added to the ore during the crushing, grinding, or sluicing processes. Often only 10% of the mercury bonds with the gold, leaving the other 90% of the mercury to be released into the environment or removed from the mix and ...

Unfortunately, much of this mercury is used in dangerous and environmentally-threatening artisanal gold mining. While the third “R”, recycling, has been embraced by companies that can see both social and economic benefits of using reclaimed materials, progress on the first two Rs, reduce and reuse, has been slower.

The amount of mercury used and lost during mining depends on the amalgamation approach used. In cases where the whole ore is amalgamated, losses of mercury can be very large – as high as 20 units of mercury lost to recover 1 unit of gold. Existing estimates suggest that mercury used in ASGM costs the miner US$0.20-0.50.
