Investigations of Ion Exchange Methods for Recovery of Uranium From Liquors Produced by Acid Leaching of Gunnar Ore (open access)

Investigations of Ion Exchange Methods for Recovery of Uranium From Liquors Produced by Acid Leaching of Gunnar Ore

An ion exchange testing program was completed on Gunnar acid leach liquors and pulps. A standard column system and a resin-in-pulp system, both using anion exchange resins, were investigated. The Gunnar leach liquors are readily amenable to the recovery of uranium by ion exchange.
