How Did Zambian Miners Achieve 15kg/t Gold Adsorption with Coconut Shell Carbon?

At the end of last year, a customer from Zambia visited our website and expressed strong interest in our high-quality coconut shell activated carbon for gold extraction. Our 95% coconut shell activated carbon is known for its excellent adsorption capacity, with gold loading up to 15 kg/t and rapid adsorption rates for gold ions in cyanide leachate.

Customer Testing & Results
To ensure the product met their requirements, the customer requested a sample for on-site testing. In January, we promptly shipped 500 grams of activated carbon by air to Kitwe, Zambia. The customer conducted a carbon slurry adsorption experiment and, after incineration of the loaded carbon, successfully obtained gold nuggets. The positive results and outstanding performance led to a bulk order of 100 tons.

Our activated carbon is now playing a crucial role in the gold extraction process at the mining site in Zambia, greatly improving gold recovery efficiency and operational reliability.

The image below shows the site where activated carbon is incinerated to recover gold.
