Abstract:
The invention provides a composition for use in the recovery of precious metals, or the treatment and/or purification of water, the composition being selected from a catolytic solution having a pH greater than 7, an anolytic solution having a pH less than 7, and a near-neutral solution having a pH near 7, or a mixture of two or more of said solutions. The invention also relates to a process for the recovery of precious metals from precious metal-bearing ore using the above composition. Further, there is provided a process for making a composition, the process comprising activating water by subjecting it to a magnetic treatment; subjecting the water to electrolysis in a reactor; introducing additives to the activated water in the reactor to form a reaction mixture; subjecting the reaction mixture to photoelectrolysis and/or radioelectrolysis; and separating an anolyte and catholyte in the reactor.
