Answer:

  • In underground mining, deep shafts are dug into the ground to extract ore.
  • Once ores are extracted, they are crushed, ground, and separated through a process called “flotation”
  • this is done to achieve mineral concentrations that are 30-40 times higher than naturally occurs
  • Cyanidation is the most important purification process for gold mining. In a process called vat leaching, a sodium cyanide solution is applied to good quality ore, causing the ore to release gold into the solution. ..
  • . The Wohlwill process will purify gold to 99.9 percent by electrolyzing gold.

Hope this helps you
