The leaching cycle is relatively short (eg 20 to 90 days) but may last a year or more At completion of leaching operations the leach ore is rinsed with fresh water to remove residual cyanide With few exceptions heap leach residue (the barren ore remaining after precious metal values have been extracted) is left in place on the pad
