If this can be scaled, and is available to most soil/rock types, this could be usable for re-working old tailing piles...

I know there are other alternatives to cyanide that involve either Bismuth or Lead for extraction, but I’m assuming the issue is that they are significantly more expense and/or don’t scale well.

it’s used in jewelry, electronics, and even space exploration ...but it is especially valuable as currency.
They left that part out.

If this can be scaled, and is available to most soil/rock types, this could be usable for re-working old tailing piles... My first thought!

...Bismuth or Lead
or Mercury for extraction.
Try to get any of those past the rabid greenies!
Something that can be positioned as being like table salt or laundry bleach has a higher chance...

Right I knew lead had other unforgivables associated (forgot about mercury but same issue), but thought Bismuth was still viable....but likely still a heavy metal and thus verboten!
Thanks

I’m guessing it would also make it easier to reclaim gold from electronics.

No worries. The Hoffmans will find a way to screw it up.

As a person who once spent my days producing NaCN, I guess I'd rather work around HCl. But, it's no daisy either.

The problem with electronics is getting enough to make it viable.
Give me ten thousand tons of electronics, I will make money extracting the gold.
1 ton, not enough to be anywhere near viable...
