Tetrathionates have been found in significantly high concentrations recycled process waters from massive sulphide ore processing plants. These polythionates react with xanthate added to flotation pulps thus reducing dosages solution potentially affecting performance. The current study focused on the effect of tetrathionate-xanthate reaction mineral recoveries. Ore dissolution studies confirmed ...

Located at the intersection of Tethys and Pacific Rim metallogenic belts, Laojunshan polymetallic province in SE Yunnan Province hosts many large-scale W–Sn Sn–Zn deposits. The newly discovered Caiyuanzi medium-sized Pb–Zn deposit is located northern part this has eight sulfide ore bodies. All bodies occur siliceous rocks Lower Devonian Pojiao Formation (D1p). are conformable with stratigraphy ...

Studies of the element contents and isotopic characteristics sulfide minerals from seafloor hydrothermal deposits are a significant method investigating seawater-fluid mixing fluid-rock and/or sediment interactions in systems. The ores Noho field (NHF) Okinawa Trough (OT) consist pyrrhotite, isocubanite, sphalerite, galena, amorphous silica. Rh, Ag, Sb, Tl mostly increase galena as fluid temper...

This article aims to present the application of acetic acid and sulfuric for lead (Pb) extraction from galena concentrate applying roasting (600oC 60 min.) peroxide oxidant (0.5 M) min. leaching process. Nowadays, has been broadly applied batteries, besides PVC tubes, chemicals, paint color, alloys joint. The increases percentage Pb extraction. study shows effect concentrations (1.0 M, 1.5 2.0 ...

For the purpose of nondestructive measurements hazardous heavy-element-containing substances in soil samples, emerging technique, triple-exposure X-ray computed tomography (CT), is proposed. The use triple exposure (i.e. three different acceleration voltages for tube) improves accuracy identification atomic number a heavy element. With lead as target element, virtual microtomography simulations...
