The solvent form most commonly used is hydrogen cyanide (NaCN), which is typically diluted to around .035 percent for use in gold mining. The popular images of gold miners from the Gold Rush, either panning for gold nuggets in a mountain stream or digging into thick veins of gold with pick-axes, bear almost no resemblance to the way gold is mined today.

Using cyanide. Cyanide is highly toxic and state mining regulators say the word itself alarms people. They say if it is handled properly it is safe in these types of applications. The compound has been used in gold mining since the 1880s and continues to be used in more than 90 percent of the world's gold production today.

Historically, mercury has been widely used in placer gold mining to form mercury-gold amalgam with smaller gold particles, thereby increasing the rate of gold recovery. In the 1960s, large-scale mercury use stopped. In artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM), however, mercury is still used, often clandestine, gold prospecting.

Mining companies often argue that the combination of de-toxification and the use of liners makes the use of cyanide an acceptable risk, but there have been numerous accidents over the last decade. As a result of these environmental concerns, a few countries and US states have banned the used of gold cyanidation.

Most open-pit gold mining operations around the world use a heap leaching to extract ores from these types of deposits. Consider that most of the largest gold mines in the world are mining what would be considered low-grade ore by most standards. It would be impossible to profitably work most of these ores without use of cyanide.
