Gold recovery from a refractory pyrrhotite ore by biooxidation

The aim of the present investigation was to study the biooxidation of a refractory gold-bearing pyrrhotite, in order to increase the gold recovery during the subsequent conventional cyanidation.Bacterial cultures utilised in the biological test consisted predominantly of Thiobacillus genus. Tests were conducted at laboratory scale. The gold content of the ore sample, coming from Bolivia, was of 10 g t⁻¹ Au.After 24 h leaching time by direct cyanidation, low gold recovery was obtained (<20% Au), with a high reagent consumption. On the other hand, a high gold recovery was achieved for the biooxidated samples: after 24 h cyanidation gold dissolution reached about 91% Au.Experimental results have shown the technical feasibility of the biooxidative pretreatment prior to conventional leaching and a complete circuit of treatment, on laboratory scale, has been developed considering also the subsequent gold recovery by carbon adsorption/desorption and electrowinning.A gold extraction yield of about 86% was determined in the whole process for gold extraction from pyrrhotite (biooxidation, solid–liquid separation, cyanidation, adsorption, desorption, electrowinning).     

湘中南二叠系孤峰组硅质岩的成因属性及其地球动力学指示意义

华南二叠系底部的硅质岩及同一层位对应于华南重要的地幔强活动期和成矿期，有非常重要的动力学指示意义。研究表明，孤峰组剖面的岩性可划分为三段：泥页岩段、厚层状硅质岩段和薄层状硅质岩段。沿剖面自下而上，Al2O3、K2O和TiO2含量逐渐降低，MnO、TFe等组分逐渐升高；稀土元素显示出一定的铈负异常，∑REE偏低，且向上∑REE逐渐减少而HREE／LREE逐渐增高；一些热水沉积诊断性微量元素如As、Sb、Hg等也显示出一定程度的异常。这些特征均表明硅质岩的成岩过程中包含有正常沉积和热水沉积的共同作用，且自下而上热水沉积作用逐渐增强的趋势。这种成岩作用的演化特征，代表了下扬子地台拉张裂陷盆地对晚古生代伸展背景的沉积响应，对于探讨裂谷盆地阶段性发育的动力学特征有一定的指示意义。

The effect of anatase, rutile and sodium titanate on the dissolution of boehmite and gibbsite at 90 °C

Industrial plants that refine bauxite to alumina using the high temperature process have always held the belief that anatase was detrimental to the extraction of boehmite while rutile was not. This study shows that this effect is real and that it is observable at temperatures as low as 90 °C. The extraction of gibbsite is shown to be unaffected which leads us to believe that the kinetics of both the Ti-bearing mineral and the Al-bearing mineral is important in this phenomenon. In addition, it is shown that not only is the presence of anatase an issue in boehmite extraction but so too is the presence of sodium titanate. Rutile was found to have the least impact of the three mineral phases.

土壤侵蚀的中子活化示踪法研究

利用中子活化示踪法研究坡面土壤的侵蚀过程,发现坡面的相对侵蚀量从坡脚到坡顶随坡长的变化符合Weibull分布,其形状参数主要受降雨量、降雨历时和径流深度的影响,尺度参数主要与平均雨强、I₃₀相关.坡面在侵蚀的同时也发生沉积,一般来说短历时高强度的降雨沉积量较小,而长历时低强度的降雨沉积量较大,某一部位侵蚀产沙的沉积量与其距离之间有y=axb的关系.坡面径流直接影响着坡面的输移比,当径流深和径流系数较高时,输移比接近于1,否则输移比降低.     

吉林省桦甸市隆兴铁矿床深部地质特征

隆兴铁矿赋存于太古宙夹皮沟岩群三道沟岩组和腰抢子片麻岩中。认为矿床成因类型是属于受变质(火山沉积)铁硅建造铁矿。富矿部分则是混合岩化热液作用,使铁发生迁移而富集的。确定三道沟组内的火山铁硅质沉积建造岩层是寻找此类型矿床的地层标志,而地球物理标志是地面磁异常强度在1 000 n T以上的面积性异常即为矿致异常。     

阿尔泰南缘麦兹泥盆纪火山-沉积盆地成矿特点及其铅锌、铁、金找矿潜力分析

麦兹盆地位于西伯利亚板块南缘阿尔泰陆缘活动带中,是一个重要的铅、锌、铁矿化集中区,其中著名的有蒙库大型铁矿床、可可塔勒大型铅锌矿床,是阿尔泰南缘多金属成矿带中最重要的成矿盆地之一。盆地内矿床、矿点多为火山喷流热水沉积成因,层控特征明显,具有规模大、形态规则、厚度及有用组分稳定等特点。铁矿成矿与早泥盆世早期细碧角斑质火山作用相伴,而铅锌成矿则与早泥盆世晚期长英质火山喷流沉积作用相伴。通过对麦兹盆地成矿地质特征和典型矿床中矿体分布变化规律的研究,认为北西向同生断裂、火山沉积洼地、火山喷发中心(火山机构)共同控制铅锌矿的产出,矿体还受到后期褶皱、变质作用的改造。根据有利层位、火山岩相、喷流沉积岩、热液蚀变、矿化组合、铁帽、控矿构造和地球化学异常等综合找矿评价标志,分析了可可塔勒矿区深部、什根特、铁热克萨依、H-48号异常的铅锌找矿潜力,并探讨了盆地内铁、金的找矿潜力,指出了进一步找矿的方向与有利地段。     

Formation of the adakite-like granitoid complex and porphyry copper-gold deposit in Shaxi from southern Tancheng-Lujiang fault belt： A clue to the West Pacific plate subduction

On the basis of the geological and geochemical studies, including chemical analysis of bulk rocks, rare-earth and trace element studies, fluid inclusion, and S and O isotopic analyses, the authors described the geo-logical background of the deposit in detail and presented significant proofs for the conditions of formation of the Shaxi porphyry copper-gold deposit. Compared with other large and supper-large porphyry copper deposits in China and the adjacent Cu-Au mineralized areas, the ore-forming processes and conditions were analyzed; and the possibil-ity of forming large porphyry copper deposits in the Shaxi area was discussed. The present study indicated that the ore-forming fluid and material were mainly of magmatic origin, while meteoric water played a certain role in the ore-forming processes. Interactions between subducting and overriding plates provided a major driving force for the formation of igneous rocks and the deposition of metal elements in East China since Jurassic. Based on the geo-chemical data of the Shaxi intrusive, it is found that the copper (gold) mineralization is closely related to the genesis of adakite-like intrusive in the Shaxi area. This adakite-like intrusive was formed in the subduction environment as a result of the subduction of the West Pacific plate toward the East China continent, where there is a great potential-ity to form a large porphyry copper deposit.
