This study is dedicated to investigation of precious metal electroextraction processes, in particular to electroextraction of gold from cyanide pregnant solutions on three-dimensional cathodes, which are produced from electronegative metals. The object of research was industrial solution which was obtained by cyanide leaching of gravity concentrate. The gold content in solution was about 95 g/m3, and solution also contained 30 g/m3 Ag, 6.5 g/dm3 CN-. The influence of current density, solution flow rate and cathode material on gold extraction ratio were investigated. Operation modes were estab- lished at which gold recovery higher than 99% at residual concentration below 0.1 g/m3 can be achieved.
