This invention has the potential to increase the gold recovery by recovering gold from the gold ore associated with the gold nuggets. This process obviates the use of mercury which is a toxic chemical. The use of Solar Power generated direct current for powering the electro-win process makes it easier to use this process anywhere without the need for grid power. The salt bridge gold electro-win process can be used to strip traces of gold present in gold plant effluent such as tailings solutions.
