Impact Assessment of COVID-19 Outbreak on Gold Potassium Cyanide Market

Gold potassium cyanide or potassium gold cyanide is a water soluble white powder. Gold potassium cyanide is obtained by the anodic dissolution of gold in an aqueous solution of the compound potassium cyanide, followed by crystallization of the entire mixture. In addition, the gold potassium cyanide mixture contains approximately 68% fine gold which appears to be a fine powder that is readily soluble in water.
Read report Overview-
Gold potassium cyanide is an important gold source used in electrolytic gold plating. It is one of the most common gold compounds employed in the electroplating industry. The recent method of recovering gold from potassium gold cyanide is to convert the gold cyanide ion to metallic gold after which the reclaimed gold is converted back to gold potassium cyanide. The primary application of gold potassium cyanide is in the electroplating of metals. It is employed in the electroplating of electronic parts, costume jewelry, watches and pens. In addition, gold potassium cyanide is used in the decorative plating of jewelry.
