Recovery of Uranium From Congo Leach Liquors With Ion Exchange Resins (open access)

Recovery of Uranium From Congo Leach Liquors With Ion Exchange Resins

A method is described for recovery of uranium from sulfuric acid leach liquors of Congo ores using anion exchange resins. Excellent uranium recoveries were obtained in cyclic tests which indicate uranium capacities of 11 to 26 lbs. of U3O8 per cubic foot of resin per day. Preliminary tests indicate that sulfuric acid may be as effective as hydrochloric acid in providing the required acidity in the eluant.

Application of Heavy Media Separation, Flotation and Carbonate Leaching to Congo Ores (open access)

Application of Heavy Media Separation, Flotation and Carbonate Leaching to Congo Ores

The investigation of magnesitic-dolomite uranium ores from Union Miniere du Haute Katanga, Belgian Congo, was undertaken in order to examine the possibility of separating the uranium minerals from the carbonate minerals by Heavy Media Separation or froth flotation; thus reducing the sulfuric acid consumption during the uranium leach. In addition, the effect of carbonate leaching the whole ore and carbonate flotation products was examined.
