High-pressure oxidation comprises the oxidisation of sulphide/carbonaceous gold ore at high pressure and temperature. Temperatures exceeding 200 °C and oxygen pressures above 2200 kPa are used to attain complete oxidation of the gold-bearing ore. Reaction rates can be very fast, and the technology is widely-accepted.

bauxite, rock largely composed of a mixture of hydrous aluminum oxides.Bauxite is the principal ore of aluminum.. Bauxites vary physically according to the origin and geologic history of their deposits: some deposits are soft, easily crushed, and structureless; some are hard, dense, and pisolitic, or pealike; still others are porous but …
Approximately 85 % of bauxite is converted to alumina (Al 2 O 3) for aluminum metal production (Liu et al. 2009), and the majority of bauxite ores are used for the production of alumina via the Bayer process.The Bayer process is the principal industrial means of refining gibbsite bauxite. Globally, more than 90 % of alumina is produced by …

Bauxite residue (BR) is generated as a by-product of the Bayer process. Approximately 1.2 tons of BR is generated per ton of alumina production but the quantity of bauxite residue depends upon on the quality of the processed bauxite ore and the processing parameter (Primary Aluminium Production).The annual generation of BR in …
Approximately 85% of the world's bauxite production is metallurgical bauxite and the alumina is extracted from the bauxite in a refinery using a wet chemical caustic soda leach process known as the Bayer process. The alumina is then converted to aluminium metal via electrolysis in a smelter using the energy-intensive Hall-Heroult process.
