Gold grade of ore has a positive correlation with the abundance of NW-striking joints. The ore-hosting tuff consists of a 400 to 500 foot thick non-welded base, a densely welded central portion about 800 feet thick, and a less densely welded vapor-phase altered top that is 75-100 feet thick.

Gold ores are classified "free-milling" and "refractory" based on their response to cyanide dissolution. Bioprocessing can be used to treat refractory gold-bearing sulfide ores as well as carbonaceous gold ores. It is essential to characterize different types of gold ores to understand the extent and nature of gold-entrapment in different associated mineral phases before an appropriate ...

A mill is a device that breaks solid materials into smaller pieces by grinding, crushing, or cutting. Such comminution is an important unit operation in many processes.There are many different types of mills and many types of materials processed in them. Historically mills were powered by hand or by animals (e.g., via a hand crank), working animal (e.g., horse mill), wind or water ().

The ore is processed in a flotation mill that produces a gold-bearing concentrate which is sold to smelters. The Hecla Greens Creek Mine The Greens Creek Mine consists of an underground mine that delivers a polymetallic (silver, zinc, gold, and lead) ore to a surface mill and concentrator, which in turn produces three separate concentrates.
