THE CHEMICAL TREATMENT OF URANIUM ORES IN FRANCE
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4281799
The chemical procedures used in France at the present time for the processing of uranium ores are described, and the possible modifications and improvements are indicated. Acid leaching is the only primary method used, but alkaline leaching was investigated. For uraniferous shales alkaline leaching is essential. A review is given of the processes utilized for the recovery of uranium from rich, medium-grade. and lowgrade solutions. The possibility of using solvents or the precipitation of uranium with limestone was studied. The advantage of using uranyl nitrate solutions, rather than the uranate, for transportation to the refineries is discussed. (J. S. R.)
