Gold Leaching. Leaching can be assimilated to the principle of preparation of tea. When we add tea in hot water, the aroma of tea will dissolve in the water and not the tea leaves. So the aromas is found in liquid form and tea leaves remains in solid form in the hot water. Thus we can separate (solid-liquid separation) tea aromas from tea ...
