Most of the silver produced today is a byproduct of mining copper lead and zinc. The silver occurs within the ores of these metals in one of two ways 1 substituting for one of the metal ions within the ore mineral s atomic structure or 2 occurring as an inclusion of native silver or a silver mineral within the ore mineral.

Water is also added which turns the ore into a slurry. We send this slurry to leaching tanks where we add a weak cyanide solution to the slurry which leaches gold and silver into the solution. This process removes up to 93 percent of the gold and 70 percent of the silver from the ore. Carbon granules are then added to the solution.

MINING AND PROCESSING The Silver bearing ores are mined by either open pit or underground mining methods after which they are crushed and ground. Despite of the existence of other technologies this metal is mined through a process that uses gravity to break and extract its ores from large deposits.

Before mining can commence the land needs to be cleared of timber and vegetation. Alongside this process may be the collection of seeds and/or saplings for inclusion in a seedbank which will form the basis of post mining revegetation of the site. Next the top soil is removed and is usually also stored for replacement during rehabilitation.

A slurry of ground ore water and a weak cyanide solution is fed into large steel leach tanks where the gold and silver are dissolved. Following this leaching process the slurry passes through six adsorption tanks containing carbon granules which adsorb the gold and silver. This process removes 93 of the gold and 70 of the silver.

The patio process is a process for extracting silver from ore. Smelting or refining was necessary because silver does not occur by itself in a natural state like some metals. Instead it is made up of a larger ore body. Thus smelting or refining is necessary to remove other byproducts to get at pure silver.

The two gold refining methods most commonly employed to derive pure gold are the Miller process and the Wohlwill process.

MINING AND PROCESSING Iron ore mining can be broadly divided into two categories namely 1 manual mining which is employed in small mines and 2 mechanized mining is suitable for large iron ore mines. Manual mining method is normally limited to float ores and small mines. Mining of reef ore is also being done manually on a small scale.
