Coconut Shell Activated Carbon for Gold Recovery
A practical guide to coconut-shell activated carbon for gold recovery: iodine value, hardn
Coconut Shell Gold Recovery Carbon
The industry workhorse for CIP/CIL gold recovery — high iodine, low attrition, high gold yield.
Why Choose This Grade
- ✓High iodine = higher gold loading — iodine ≥1000 mg/g (up to 1050), more gold per tonne of carbon
- ✓Abrasion resistance ≥98% — less carbon attrition in CIP/CIL circuits, less gold loss
- ✓6×12 mesh sweet spot — optimal balance of adsorption kinetics and screen recovery
- ✓Low moisture ≤10% — dry-basis pricing, no hidden water weight
Product Description
Made from premium coconut shell via physical (steam) activation. Engineered for CIP/CIL and heap-leach gold recovery: high iodine number means higher gold-loading capacity; high abrasion resistance minimizes carbon loss in slurry agitation; the 6×12 mesh size balances adsorption kinetics against screen recovery. Delivers high recovery even from low-grade ore. Custom iodine, mesh and hardness available, shipped with third-party test certificates.
