The adsorption behavior of sodium oleate on brucite, Mg(OH)2, has been studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Both internal reflection and diffuse reflection (DRIFT) methods
Chile is the world’s largest copper producer and as such sets the standard of practice in copper SX/EW design. The authors summarize the liner systems
Reconnaissance sampling of high calcium (HC) limestones in New Mexico has been reported by Siemers (1982), Jicha (1956), and Kottlowski (1962). Numerous articles describe the
Monometallic Flotation Plant Gravity Recovery & Au/Ag Leaching with CCD Merrill Crowe Plant & Refinery Gravity Recovery & Au/Ag Leaching – CIL Stripping & Refinery
A new bacterium, Thiobacillus cuprinus, can extract copper from chalcopyrite as rapidly as T. ferrooxidans. On solution with and without nutrient amendments and bacterial growth
Toxic substances in On solutions can retard biological leaching of copper sulfide dump ores. On solutions were analyzed for metals, organics, and chloride, and showed
The disposal of spent ore from cyanide heap-leach processing facilities is of concern to the mining industry, regulatory agencies, and the public. Disposal of several
In some cases, silver will recover very well by gravity. In laboratory testing, two kilograms of plant feed was ground to 80µm F80 and passed
A kinetic model for batch leaching of various metals with different lixiviants has been developed. Overall material balances for reactants and products at the solid/liquid
The separating efficiency of a flotation column is largely limited by the degree of backmixing of tailings into the froth zone, and its recovery is
