The objective of the research was to determine the influence of particle size on the percentage of gold extraction through 4 stages of diagnostic oxidative acid leaching (DLT) of a tailing from Pataz. The diagnostic leaching method was used, comprising the following stages: 1st conventional cyanidation for the extraction of free gold, hydrochloric acid oxidation of carbonates and pyrrhotite followed by washing, alkalinization and 2nd cyanidation, sulfuric acid oxidation of zinc sulfides, followed by washing alkalinization and 3rd cyanidation, oxidation with nitric acid for pyrites and arsenopyrites followed by washing, alkalinization and 4th cyanidation, finally the residues were analyzed and the metallurgical balances were made, this was for each type of granulometry, 80% passing through 200 mesh and 90% passing through 400 mesh. The results obtained for gold extraction after diagnostic leaching (DLT) for the granulometry of 80% through 200 mesh were free cyanurable gold (14.78%), gold associated with carbonates and pyrrhotite (17.99%), gold associated with zinc sulfides (24.35%), gold associated with pyrite and arsenopyrite (36.79%) and gold associated with silicates (9.08%). For the DLT at a particle size of 90% passing through 400 mesh, it was free cyanurable gold (12.84%), gold associated with carbonates and pyrrhotite (16.60%), gold associated with zinc sulfides (19.11%), gold associated with pyrite and arsenopyrite (37.16%) and gold associated with silicates (14.29%). According to the analysis of variance it is concluded that the variables have a significant influence on the extraction of gold by DLT, however, a possible pregrobbing effect could be observed due to the high percentage of silicates in the tailings, and that the gold remains associated in this phase.
