Lixiviation of uranium ores by capillarity; Lixiviation par capillarite des minerais d'uranium (1962)

Abstract

All chemical concentration plants use at the moment a process of lixiviation by agitation for the treatment of uranium ores. It has become necessary for various reasons to study the application of a more economical system which is that of the lixiviation by capillarity in heaps. After presenting the laboratory tests for recognizing the ability of an ore for this type of lixiviation, the authors give an outline of the two semi-industrial tests which are still in progress. The results are such that it has been possible to plan larger installations which are now under construction. (authors) [French] Les usines de concentration chimique utilisent toutes actuellement la lixiviation par agitation des minerais d'uranium. Il est devenu necessaire pour diverses raisons d'etudier l'application d'un procede plus economique, qui est celui de la lixiviation par capillarite en tas. Apres un expose des tests de laboratoire permettant de connaitre l'aptitude d'un minerai a ce type de lixiviation, est donne un apercu de deux essais semi-industriels non encore acheves a ce jour. Les resultats sont tels, qu'ils ont permis de projeter des installations plus importantes, qui sont actuellement en construction. (auteurs)
