Ore samples used in this study, were obtained from the Izmir Efemçukuru gold mine. The initial gravity test completed on the ore reveals that the gold in the ore can be removed by over 70% recovery. If required, the coarse and free gold in the ore can be recovered by gravity methods. With this method, the use of cyanide is much less because it is applied only to the gold concentrate, not to the entire ore. Thus, the environmental effects of the cyanide are much lower than they would be in heap or tank leaching techniques.
