Abstract
The present paper presents the results of a study on the development and optimisation of a chemical stripping solution for the removal of gold deposits from different substrates. This stripping solution essentially contains potassium hydroxide, potassium cyanide, sodium citrate and m-nitro benzoic acid. Rate of stripping has been studied at varying concentrations of constituents; temperatures and an optimum composition derived.
