Mponeng Gold Mine, South Africa
Gold is extracted through the carbon-in-pulp (CIP) process. The extracted gold finally undergoes electro-winning and smelting in induction furnaces at the plant. The Mponeng gold plant has the capacity to process 165,000t of ore a month. South African electricity utility Eskom supplies the electricity required for the gold operation.

Gold mining
Other gold mines use underground mining, where the ore is extracted through tunnels or shafts. South Africa has the world''s deepest hard rock gold mine up to 3,900 metres (12,800 ft) underground. At such depths, the heat is unbearable for humans, and air conditioning is required for the safety of the workers.

The Formation of Gold deposits in South Africa
In 1852, the English prospector J.H. Davis discovered the first gold in the Witwatersrand, leading to the South African gold rush and the discovery of much more gold deposits within the basin. Although the Witwatersrand has been subject for decades of research, the genesis of gold and uranium ore is still unclear.

Gold production in South Africa is projected to continue its decline in future, and prospects for discovery of new high-grade deposits are limited. Many of the mining companies have resorted to mining and processing low-grade and complex gold ores. Such ores are technically challenging to process, which results in low recovery rates, excessive reagent consumption and high operating costs when
