Abstract
Thiosulfate has shown promise as an alternative to cyanide for gold leaching. However, one of the limitations is high thiosulfate consumption. Thiosulfate degradation is not completely understood. Of the degradation products, trithionate is a concern in the resin recovery of gold and is persistent in solution. Very little is known about the expected behaviour of trithionate both with respect to its formation and to its interaction with other solution species.The focus of this work was to further the understanding of the behaviour of trithionate in gold leach solutions. −d[ S3O62− ]dt=(k3[ NH4+ ]+k2[ NH3 ]+k1[ OH− ]+k0[ S3O62− ]) The degradation kinetics was determined in systems resembling gold leaching solutions and a kinetic model was derived as expressed in Equation 1 for aqueous ammoniacal solutions. (1) The presence of lower concentrations of thiosulfate catalyzed the reaction, while excess thiosulfate inhibited it. Cupric copper was not found to have any effect under the conditions tested.L’hyposulfite s’est montré prometteur comme substitut du cyanure pour la lixiviation de l’or. Cependant, l’une des limitations est la consommation élevée d’hyposulfite. La dégradation de l’hyposulfite n’est pas entièrement comprise. Parmi les produits de la dégradation, le trithionate est une préoccupation dans la récupération à la résine de l’or et est persistant en solution. On connaît très peu du comportement attendu du trithionate tant en ce qui a trait à sa formation qu’à son interaction avec d’autres espèces en solution.L’objet de ce travail consistait à mieux comprendre le comportement du trithionate dans les solutions de lixiviation de l’or. On a determiné la cinétique de la dégradation dans des systèmes qui ressemblaient aux solutions de lixiviation de l’or et l’on a dérivé un modèle cinétique tel qu’exprimé à l’Équation 1 pour les solutions aqueuses ammoniacales. −d[ S3O62− ]dt=(k3[ NH4+ ]+k2[ NH3 ]+k1[ OH− ]+k0[ S3O62− ]) Les plus faibles concentrations d’hyposulfite agissaient comme catalyseur de la réaction alors que l’excès d’hyposulfite l’inhibait. On a trouvé que le cuivre cuivrique n’avait aucun effet sous les conditions évaluées.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
