Description

Fremgangsmåte ved utvinning av elementer fra malte bergarter eller fattige mineraler. Procedure for extracting elements from ground rocks or poor minerals.

Foreliggende oppfinnelse angår en fremgangsmåte ved utvin- The present invention relates to a method by extracting

ning av elementer, spesielt metaller, som inneholdes i meget små ning of elements, especially metals, which are contained in very small

mengder i plutoniske, vulkanske, sedimentære og metamorfe bergar- quantities in plutonic, volcanic, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks

ter eller i fattige mineraler, ved hvilken fremgangsmåte elementene utvinnes under anvendelse av ichelatdannende midler. ter or in poor minerals, by which method the elements are extracted using chelate-forming agents.

Fenomenet chelatdannelse er i seg selv kjent. En chelatfor-bindelse oppstår ved forening av et metall M med et materiale som inneholder to eller flere elektronavgivende grupper. Det erholdes derved en spesiell type interne komplekser av cyklisk struktur. The phenomenon of chelation is known in itself. A chelate bond occurs when a metal M is united with a material containing two or more electron-donating groups. A special type of internal complexes of cyclic structure is thereby obtained.

Slike cykliske komplekser eller chelatkomplekser oppviser bemerkel-sesverdig stabilitet og har vært utnyttet tidligere ved utvinning av metaller fra mineraler. Such cyclic complexes or chelate complexes exhibit remarkable stability and have been used in the past in the extraction of metals from minerals.

Ved hjelp av oppfinnelsen tilveiebringes der nu en fremgangsmåte ved utvinning av elementer fra malte bergarter eller mineraler under anvendelse av en kombinasjon av to chelatdannende midler, hvilken fremgangsmåte utmerker seg ved at sporelementer, spesielt metaller mobiliseres og ekstraheres ved anvendelse av en kombinasjon av sitronsyre og oxalsyre. With the help of the invention, a method is now provided for the extraction of elements from ground rocks or minerals using a combination of two chelating agents, which method is characterized by the fact that trace elements, especially metals, are mobilized and extracted using a combination of citric acid and oxalic acid .

Det foretrekkes å anvende en 0,1 M opplosning av de to syrer. It is preferred to use a 0.1 M solution of the two acids.

Det er ikke nodvendig å underkaste bergarten eller mineral-et noen forbehandling i tillegg til malingen, for utvinningen fore-taes, og fremgangsmåten kan utfores ved omgivelsenes temperatur eller ved moderat forhoyet temperatur. It is not necessary to subject the rock or mineral to any pre-treatment in addition to the painting, for the extraction to take place, and the procedure can be carried out at ambient temperature or at a moderately elevated temperature.

Ved den kombinerte virkning av de to syrer dannes der vann-opploselige og meget stabile komplekser som inneholder sporelementene, og denne kompleksdanneIse og utvinning av sporelementene fin-ner sted uten at bergartens eller mineralets grunnstruktur nedbry-tes. Dette skyldes at sporelementene oppviser hoy geokjemisk mo-bilitet ved at de er bundet bare meget svakt til grunnstrukturen uten å utgjore noen egentlig del av bergartens eller mineralets krysta llstruktur. By the combined action of the two acids, water-soluble and very stable complexes containing the trace elements are formed, and this complex formation and extraction of the trace elements takes place without the basic structure of the rock or mineral being broken down. This is because the trace elements exhibit high geochemical mobility in that they are bound only very weakly to the basic structure without making up any actual part of the rock or mineral's crystal structure.

Fremgangsmåten er spesielt interessant hva plutoniske gra-nitter angår, fordi disse utgjor meget store potensielle reserver av uran, kobber, bly, sink,tinn, molybden, vanadium, kobolt, lan-tanider osv. Fremgamgsmåten er nyttig ved utvinning av metaller som inneholdes i gangart fra gruvedrift eller i materialer som er bragt for dagen i forbindelse med konstruksjon av demninger, utgraving av tuneller og kanaler osv., eller som inneholdes i storre mineralfo-rekomster som er for fattige til å kunne behandles efter kjente me-toder. Metallene som dnskes utvunnet, kan inneholdes i bergarten i så små mengder som noen få gamma pr. gram bergart. The method is particularly interesting as far as plutonic granites are concerned, because these constitute very large potential reserves of uranium, copper, lead, zinc, tin, molybdenum, vanadium, cobalt, lanthanides, etc. The method is useful in the extraction of metals contained in gait from mining or in materials that have been brought to light in connection with the construction of dams, excavation of tunnels and canals, etc., or that are contained in larger mineral deposits that are too poor to be processed according to known methods. The metals that are supposedly extracted can be contained in the rock in amounts as small as a few gammas per grams of rock.

I de nedenstående eksempler beskrives noen spesifikke ut-for e lsesf ormer av fremgangsmåten ifolge oppfinnelsen. In the examples below, some specific embodiments of the method according to the invention are described.

Eksempel 1 Example 1

I en rotasjonskolbe av polystyren ble det anbragt 50 g gra-nitt av kornstorrelse O,1 - 0,3 ™m«Det ble tilsatt 25 ml 1/10 M oxalsyre og 25 ml l/lO sitronsyre, og kolben med innhold ble dreiet med en hastighet av 80 omdreininger pr. minutt ved romtemperatur i 4 timer. For å oke turbulensen ved omroringen ble det benyttet en automatisk innretning som med visse mellomrom snudde kolbens dreieretning. Denne reversering av dreieretningen forhindret dess-uten at partiklene festet seg til kolbens vegger. Efter fullfort rotasjon ble blandingen dekantert, hvorefter det meste av væsken ble skilt fra granitten ved filtrering. 50 g of granite with a grain size of 0.1 - 0.3 ™m was placed in a polystyrene rotary flask. 25 ml of 1/10 M oxalic acid and 25 ml of 1/10 citric acid were added, and the flask containing the contents was rotated with a speed of 80 revolutions per minute at room temperature for 4 hours. In order to increase the turbulence during the stirring, an automatic device was used which at certain intervals reversed the direction of rotation of the flask. This reversal of the direction of rotation also prevented the particles from sticking to the walls of the flask. After complete rotation, the mixture was decanted, after which most of the liquid was separated from the granite by filtration.

Operasjonen ble gjentatt tre ganger, hver gang med samme volum reagens, nemlig 50 ml. På denne måte ble den behandlede prove bragt i kontakt med 200 ml reagens, som efter dekantering ble sentrifugert ved 60OO omdreininger pr. minutt inntil det ble erholdt en klar væske, som inneholdt praktisk talt alle granittens metaller. The operation was repeated three times, each time with the same volume of reagent, namely 50 ml. In this way, the treated sample was brought into contact with 200 ml of reagent, which, after decanting, was centrifuged at 6000 revolutions per minute. minute until a clear liquid was obtained, which contained practically all the metals of the granite.

Resultatene som ble oppnådd med tre granittprover av for-skjellig opprinnelse, er gitt i den nedenstående tabell I. Tabel-len viser de prosentvise ekstraherte mengder av granittens sporelementer ved anvendelse på den ene side av l/lO N HNO^og på den annen side av l/lO M sitronsyre/oxalsyre-blandingen. The results obtained with three granite samples of different origin are given in Table I below. The table shows the percentage extracted amounts of the granite's trace elements using on the one hand 1/10 N HNO^ and on the other of the l/lO M citric acid/oxalic acid mixture.

Dersom man beregner den prosentvise utvinning (U % av et gitt element som funksjon av innholdet^/g i ekstraktresiduet og i bergarten efter ligningen: finnes det at den prosentvise utvinning er betydelig, som vist i den nedenstående tabell n, som for bly, krom, nikkel, tinn og kobber gir de opprinnelige innhold i l<f>/g og den tilsvarende prosentvise utvinning U. If one calculates the percentage recovery (U % of a given element as a function of the content^/g in the extract residue and in the rock according to the equation: it is found that the percentage recovery is significant, as shown in the following table n, as for lead, chromium, nickel, tin and copper give the original content in l<f>/g and the corresponding percentage recovery U.

En sammeligning av vektmengdene av de organiske residuer A comparison of the weight amounts of the organic residues

og de residuer som fåes ved utvasking med salpetersyre, viser at for én og samme prove, av samme kornstbrrelse, fåes hver gang storre vektmengder residuum ved anvendelse av kombinasjonen av sitronsyre og oxalsyre. Innholdet i så godt som samtlige av de organiske ekstrakter er hoyere enn innholdet i residuene erholdt ved anvendelse av salpetersyre. and the residues obtained by leaching with nitric acid show that for one and the same sample, of the same grain size, larger amounts of residue by weight are obtained each time when the combination of citric acid and oxalic acid is used. The content in almost all of the organic extracts is higher than the content in the residues obtained by using nitric acid.

Eksempel 2 Example 2

I dette forsok ble alle faktorer som kunne forårsake tur-bulens eliminert, slik at ingen endring av de behandlede materi-ales kornstbrrelse kunne finne sted. In this experiment, all factors that could cause turbulence were eliminated, so that no change in the grain size of the treated materials could take place.

200 ml reagens ble med en hastighet av 0,1 ml/sekund ledet gjennom en soyle av 9 g granittpartikler av partikkelstorrelse 0,24 mm som hvilte på en nylonduk av tykkelse 0,1 mm. Granitt-soylens temperatur ble holdt konstant på 35°C Hver tredje uke ble lOO ml av væsken fjernet og derefter sentrifugert, hvorefter residuet ble tbrret, kalsinert ved 1000°C og analysert ved spek-trografering. Ved forsoket, som strakte seg over 30 uker, ble det 200 ml of reagent was passed at a rate of 0.1 ml/second through a bed of 9 g of granite particles of particle size 0.24 mm resting on a nylon cloth of thickness 0.1 mm. The temperature of the granite soil was kept constant at 35°C. Every three weeks, 100 ml of the liquid was removed and then centrifuged, after which the residue was filtered, calcined at 1000°C and analyzed by spectrography. During the trial, which spanned 30 weeks, it was

i sammenligningsoyemed benyttet fire reagenser, nemlig en mettet opplbsning av Fe^SO^)^i 1 N H2SO^, en mettet opplosning av NaHCO^som ble holdt under en strom av CO , en N/lO opplosning av HNO_ og sluttelig en M/10 opplosning av sitronsyre/oxalsyre. for comparison four reagents were used, namely a saturated solution of Fe^SO^)^in 1 N H2SO^, a saturated solution of NaHCO^ which was held under a current of CO, a N/lO solution of HNO_ and finally a M/ 10 solution of citric acid/oxalic acid.

Den erholdte mengde residuum avtok efterhvert efter å ha The amount of residue obtained gradually decreased after having

nådd et maksimum og nærmet seg en asymptote. reached a maximum and approached an asymptote.

Denne metode ga resultater som stemte overens med de resultater som ble oppnådd ved den i eksempel 1 beskrevne akseller-erte ekstraksjon, hvor reaksjonskolben ble underkastet rotasjon. This method gave results that agreed with the results obtained by the accelerated extraction described in example 1, where the reaction flask was subjected to rotation.

Den nye fremgangsmåte har vist at de fleste metaller som The new method has shown that most metals which

er tilstede i bergarten, er meget mobile og således lett ekstraheres med svake reagenser, og at visse elementer, såsom jern, alu-minium og silicium, nesten alltid finnes i ekstraksjonsresiduet. Disse hovedelementer ekstraheres delvis som folge av blandevirk-ningen, idet omroringen nødvendigvis forårsaker dispergering av meget fine partikler i kolloidal tilstand, men spesielt som folge av utvaskingen av mikrosprekkene. are present in the rock, are very mobile and thus easily extracted with weak reagents, and that certain elements, such as iron, aluminum and silicon, are almost always found in the extraction residue. These main elements are partly extracted as a result of the mixing effect, as the stirring necessarily causes the dispersion of very fine particles in a colloidal state, but especially as a result of the washing out of the microcracks.
