Description

Fluctuant dissolving dipping mining method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of mining codes, relate in particular to a kind of fluctuant dissolving dipping mining method, be widely used in the production by dissolving and leaching process field of mineral such as uranium, copper, gold, rare earth, zinc based on miscible (mixing) characteristic of gas-liquid and pressure oscillation.
Background technology
Traditional in-situ leaching mining codes are to apply certain constant pressure at the injection well to inject leachant, leachant generates leaching solution with some mineral generation physics, chemical reaction in ore bed, and in producing well, directly extract leaching solution, obtain valuable mineral by leaching solution.Recovery ratio and the speed of gathering are the important indicators of solution mining, are to weigh the index that improves resource utilization, also are important evidence weighing the production by dissolving and leaching process situation.The relative position that injects well and producing well directly has influence on the molten scope and the molten intensity of soaking of soaking of leachant, and the distributing position difference of drilling well causes different molten scope and the molten intensity of soaking of soaking; Geotechnical body is a material heterogeneous simultaneously, because cutting rock mass such as crack, solution cavity form various rock mass heterogeneous and sillar, has caused the advantage flow region and the advantage flow channel of various kinds.The leachant that conventional method is injected mainly directly enters producing well by advantage flow region and advantage flow channel.Leachant influences being limited in scope of ore bed, and the relatively little permeable areas in the ore bed, leachant flows slowly or does not flow, and forms in " the molten dead band of soaking " or " dead angle ".
As Fig. 1 (the production fluid flow schematic diagram under the mobility status that has superiority), under the situation of flow channel that has superiority, the molten fluid that soaks is mainly along flowing in crack (6), solution cavity advantage flow surfaces such as (8) or the flow channel, and leachant can't fully flow with advantage flow surface (passage) ore bed (7) on every side, mineral are obtained in contact, reaction, thereby ore body that should the zone can't fully be gathered.
As Fig. 2 (at the production fluid flow schematic diagram that has under the hypotonic regional situation), having under the hypotonic regional situation, leachant mainly oozes zone (5) by height and flows, seldom or do not have leachant and flow by hypotonic zone (4).
Fig. 1,2 shows that the molten scope (influence basin) of soaking of conventional in-situ leaching exploitation method is very limited, has reduced scope and the recovery ratio of mineral reserve and the speed of gathering of mineral production by dissolving and leaching process.
In sum, traditional in-situ leaching mining has following shortcoming:
1. moltenly soak the relative position that influence basin injected well and producing well and influence, moltenly soak scope and moltenly soak the influence that intensity can be subjected to drill holes, the molten dead angle of soaking is arranged;
2. because the heterogeneity of ore bed rock soil medium character and variability cause the leachant advantage to flow, the production by dissolving and leaching process process is limited to the influence of ore bed;
3. the production by dissolving and leaching process in hypotonic zone mainly relies on molecular diffusion rather than convection current, disperse to finish the production by dissolving and leaching process process, and therefore the exploitation rate in hypotonic zone is slow, the recovery ratio that influence mineral reserve with gather speed.
How to improve the molten scope of soaking? how to solve because the molten difficulty of soaking that the heterogeneity of ore bed causes? how to improve recovery ratio, the recovering range of production by dissolving and leaching process and the speed of gathering? all are the problems that need emphasis to solve.
Summary of the invention
Purpose of the present invention just is to overcome the problems referred to above and the deficiency that prior art exists, enlarge the scope of application of prior art, a kind of fluctuant dissolving dipping mining method based on ore bed pressure oscillation and gas-liquid mixture high compression or high swell-shrink characteristics is provided, be a kind of simple, effective, and the method that can finish simultaneously with the exploitation of conventional in-situ leaching, help improving the recovery ratio of mineral, the speed of gathering and recovering range.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this:
The in-situ leaching mining codes have become a kind of production by dissolving and leaching process field that has been widely used in mineral reserve such as uranium, copper, gold, rare earth, zinc, thorium through the development of over half a century.The present invention is the improvement to the in-situ leaching mining codes, and the place is arranged as shown in Figure 3, comprised the following steps:
1. at hydrometallurgy factory (9) or injection well (1), the liquids and gases that comprise leachant mix the gas-liquid mixture fluid that forms high-compressibility and inject ore bed (3) through injecting well (1);
2. constantly fluctuate fluid pressure in the ore bed (3) is promptly by constantly raising or reducing the fluctuation variation that the pressure that injects well (1) and producing well (2) is realized the ore bed mixed-fluid pressure;
3. collect the leaching solution that contains mineral reserve at injection well (1) or producing well (2);
4. repeat above step 1. 2. 3., soak till the mineral reserve concentration of obtaining is lower than the economic exploitation concentration up to molten.
Operating principle of the present invention:
Certain pressure forms miscible (or mixing) fluid of leachant and gas down, increase the breathing character of fluid, form the high-compressibility fluid-mixing, fluid-mixing is injected ore bed (3) by injecting well (1), constantly reduce and improve the pressure that injects well (1) or producing well (2) then, cause the pressure of the fluid-mixing of ore bed (3) constantly to change fluctuation, form the swollen compression deformation of fluid-mixing, make fluid-mixing constantly between the different permeability zones of heterogeneous body ore bed and mobile advantage face and non-advantage flow region mobile, increase time and chance that the leaching solution of hypotonic and non-advantage flow region flows, injecting well (1) or producing well (2) is arbitrary or both obtain leaching solution then.
The present invention has following advantage and good effect:
1. reduce the influence of injection well (1) and producing well (2) well spacing position to recovery ratio and recovering range; Reduce the molten dead angle of soaking.
2. weaken because of the non-homogeneous zone of ore bed (height oozes, crack, cave, fingering are serious etc.) causes the advantage of fluid to flow, increase flowing velocity, flow mechanism meeting and the time of leaching solution at hypotonic zone and non-advantage flow region; The step-down advantage that the blends perimeter zone of flowing is the transition process of convection current and disperse based on the solute migration process of molecular diffusion, quickens whole production by dissolving and leaching process process, and weakening advantage flow phenomenon is to molten negative effect of soaking.
3. under the dynamic pressure effect, hydraulic gradient in sandstone or the rock mass is dynamic change, each pressure oscillation all can produce disturbance to the water of hydration on rock particles surface, reduces the retardation of weak water of hydration fluid flow and leach chemistry reaction, accelerates flow process and chemical reaction velocity.
The present invention is applicable to the production by dissolving and leaching process field of mineral such as uranium, copper, gold, rare earth.This method is applicable to any ore bed that can carry out the in-situ leaching exploitation, also be applicable to the ore bed that is not suitable for carrying out traditional production by dissolving and leaching process method exploitation owing to the ore bed heterogeneity strongly, be primarily aimed at the latter, the scope of big quantum jump tradition production by dissolving and leaching process method and the recovery ratio of raising mineral.
