ANIONIC AND CATIONIC REMOVAL OF COPPER FROM CYANIDE-CONTAINING REMOVAL OF ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for removing low concentrations of solu- ble copper in the form of cupric cation and cuprocyanide and cupricyanide anions comprises first adding ferric cation, or ferrous cation and a soluble oxidizing agent, in an amount in excess of the stoichiometric amount required to form the ferric salts of the cuprocyanide and cupricyanide anions, and after a predetermined time adding an environmentally acceptable soluble precipitant to precipitate substantially all of the remaining excess ferric cation. By this pro- cedure, very small concentrations of soluble cupric cation and the ferric salts of the cuprocyanide and cupricyanide anions, which are typically present in such low concentra- tions that they remain essentially permanently suspended in colloidal solution, are removed by the insoluble ferric compound which is present in much higher concentrations.
