Extraction of gold from platinum group metal (PGM) ores
The process can be modified to process complex feeds by adjusting the slag chemistry; iron can be removed by adding silica to form an iron–silicate slag phase such as fayalite [Fe 2 SiO 4]. Copper and nickel can be removed by the addition of sulfide to form a matte phase between the slag and the molten lead phase.
