Advances in high-temperature heap leaching of refractory
2012-12-13 · Heap leaching is used extensively for theprocessing of copper and gold ores, but therehas also been renewed interest in uraniumores, as well as recent application to nickellaterites, and more frequently the applicationof heap leaching needs to be considered as partof a larger process in combination with otherleaching steps. Each application introducescomplexities particular to its requirements.Heap leaching typically involves simpleatmospheric leach processes and well-established recovery steps such as solventextraction (copper), ion exchange (uranium),and hydroxide precipitation (nickel laterites).Disadvantages of heap leaching include lowermetal extractions, long ramp-up times, andlengthy experimental programmes1. With thedepletion of higher grade resources,metallurgical testwork will be focusingincreasingly on lower grade, more complex,and refractory ores, as well as smallerdeposits. As a result, the level of sophisticationthat needs to be built into the design andoperation of the heap leaching
