Arrastras were used by early miners to crush gold ore so that the valuable metal could be extracted. Most were powered by donkeys or oxen, although some were powered by waterwheels or even by the miners themselves. Crushing of ore was necessary to mine lode gold deposits.

The mercury decanted from the top at the end of this time contained 0.068 per cent, of gold, and after filtering through boxwood contained 0.06 per cent, of gold, indicating that the higher figures are due to the presence of fragments of gold or gold-amalgam so minute as to pass through the filtering device employed.

The process of gold ore processing and production mainly includes three processes: crushing, grinding and beneficiation. In the crushing process, the three-stage closed-circuit crushing is more modern and suitable for high-hardness gold ore crushing, which can complete the work of ore crushing and partial dissociation, thereby improving the subsequent grinding efficiency;

The third stage is to remove the gold-mercury amalgam at regular intervals and re-dressing the plates with new mercury.

Where stamp mills were used to crush gold-bearing ore to fines, a part of the extraction process involved the use of mercury-wetted copper plates, over which the crushed fines were washed. A periodic scraping and re-mercurizing of the plate resulted in amalgam for further processing.

Recovering the gold meant processing ores via a range of technologies including roasting, crushing and amalgamation with mercury. The most common way of crushing gold-bearing ore was in a stamp battery, which typically consisted of a set of heavy iron stamp heads held in a timber frame, with each head weighing 200 kg or more (Birrell, 2005

Using Mercury in Gold Ore Crushing. The earliest machines used for the purpose seem to have been stone mortars, in which the gold quartz was crushed by stone-hammers, or by large rocks raised by levers and let fall, whilst the fine material was subsequently washed out with water. The heavy particles of gold then settled to the bottom of the

The gold processing includes ore crushing, sluicing, panning and amalgamation. Various activities including trading of gold, mercury and other chemical reagents also take place at the processing sites. The gold ore is usually bagged and brought from the mining sites to the processing sites.

Liquid mercury is used in artisanal and small‐scale gold mining. a) Trommels are used to crush rock and mix mercury with ore. b) As much as 1 kg of liquid mercury is added to each trommel along with water and 20 kg of ore. c) Excess mercury is recovered, but mercury‐rich mine tailings are often released directly into the environment.

For most small-scale gold prospectors, crushing ore to determine the amount of free gold is the best method to determine gold content within an ore sample. Free gold can then be collected using traditional gravity based methods, which do not require the same level of permitting as the chemical methods used by commercial gold mines.
