Many studies indicate microbial leaching is more important in low-grade ore, ore sample collected from Mianhuakeng uranium mine located in northern Guangdong province in …

Magnetic Separation of Impurities from Hydrometallurgy

The removal of iron ion from leaching solution is critical for the recovery of value metals, with the method of choice commonly being crystallization (precipitation). This paper summarized the new improvements in iron removal by precipitation methods in recent years and proposed a novel process, magnetic seeding and separation. The new process can promote …

Rare Earth Elements Biorecovery from Mineral …

Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical raw materials and are attracting interest because of their applications in novel technologies and green economy. Biohydrometallurgy has been used to extract other base metals; …

Perspective of Obtaining Rare Earth Elements in Poland

The leaching reagent should be selected to fit specific characteristics of the source material, for example, acids are commonly used to extract REE from silicate ore mineral such as gadolinite, eudialite, and allanite, and the alkaline reagents and sulfuric acid are mainly used to leach REE from phosphate ore minerals like monazite and xenotime.

Restoration of Uranium Tailings in the Mountains: A

In 1948, there was a uranium ore processing plant here. Uranium oxide was extracted from the ash of brown uranium-containing coals of the Sogutinsky deposit after their combustion (uranium oxide was extracted by leaching from the ash). In the Kadzhi-Say geochemical province, the radiation level is relatively low and ranges from 18 to 40 μR/h ...

Bio Hydrometallurgical Technology, Application and Process

Many studies indicate microbial leaching is more important in low-grade ore, ore sample collected from Mianhuakeng uranium mine located in northern Guangdong province in China, leached by heap, by mixed microorganism of Acidithiobacillus Ferrooxidans and Leptospirillum Ferriphilum with 88.3% leaching efficiency . Uranium leaching takes places ...

Microbiological leaching of uranium ores | Mining

Microbiological leaching has been used as an alternative approach to conventional hydrometallurgical methods of uranium extraction. In the microbiological leaching process, iron-oxidizing bacteria oxidize pyritic phases to ferric iron and sulfuric acid, and uranium is solubilized from the ore due to sulfuric acid attack.
