General comment Sodium cyanide is a poisonous compound that is a white, water-soluble solid. It has a high affinity for metals, which leads to its high toxicity. Its main application is in gold mining, where its high reactivity toward metals is exploited. It is also used in electroplating, fumigating, and treating steel. Sodium cyanide, which liberates hydrogen cyanide, is occasionally used against predatory animals. Because of its extreme toxicity, its use is restricted to trained applicators.
