Manganese dioxide (MnO₂) is used in gold mining primarily as an oxidizing agent in the leaching process. It helps to oxidize sulfide minerals, which facilitates the extraction of gold from ore. Manganese dioxide is effective in removing impurities and enhancing the overall efficiency of the gold extraction process. By improving the oxidation state of the leaching solution, it aids in achieving better gold recovery rates and optimizing the processing of gold ores.
