Definitions
- This invention relates to the methods of extraction of metals, their chlorides, oxides, hydroxides from the rocks and can be used for wasteless, complete and environmentally sound extraction of valuable products from ultrabasic rocks and their metamorphic varieties such as serpentinites, hardwoods, etc, as well as basic rocks which are transient from ultrabasic to basic, wherein content of olivine and its varieties is from 5 to 50 %.
- the most related method by technical essence consists in processing of metamorphic formation of ultramafic rocks and minerals, namely serpentinite and forsterite, by their crushing and grinding, and subsequent dissolution in hydrochloric acid resulting in dissolved fraction in the form of magnesium chloride, and undissolved fraction in the form of silicon dioxide [2].
- magnesium chloride is transformed into magnesium hydroxide which is saturated by carbon dioxide to form MgCO 3 .
- MgCO 3 magnesium hydroxide which is saturated by carbon dioxide to form MgCO 3 .
- the disadvantage of this method is the limited utility conditioned by extraction and enrichment of only serpentinite and forsterite rocks containing 90% of magnesium and silicon compounds. Besides, in mentioned method the most useful products obtained after dissolution of the rock remain untapped.
- the objective of presented invention is integrated extraction of all useful products from the ultrabasic rocks and their metamorphic varieties, such as serpentinites, hardwoods, etc., as well as basic transition (from ultrabasic to basic) rocks, such as norites, habro-norites, olivinic habro, anorthosites and troctolites, wherein the amount of rockforming mineral, olivine (Mg,Fe) 2 SiO 4 , and its metamorphic varieties is in the range 5 - 50 %.

- the original rock is grinded up to grain size less than 1 mm that is calcined at temperatures bellow 1000 °C during time interval 5 - 120 min.
- Magnesium chloride and other salts are separated and purified by the methods of electro-membrane separation or chemical precipitation. The separation of undissolved part is performed by chemical, gravitational or electromagnetic methods. With the aim of production of pure and extrapure metals the obtained hydroxides and oxides are subjected to selective reduction by the methods of hydrogen, cathodic or high temperature metallurgical vacuum electron-beam reduction and casting depending on nature of metal and necessary purity.
- ED* - electro-membrane The embodiment of the invention can be illustrated as following.
- Basic and ultrabasic rocks manifested by massifs containing from 50 to 95 % of rockforming mineral olivine, with depth occurrence of 2000 m and more, are recovered from the deposit by known methods, like excavation, whereupon they are crushed, grinded up to particle size less than 1 mm, calcined if necessary, for water removal and activation at temperature up to 1000 °C during time interval from 5 to 120 min.
- silicate part of the of rockforming mineral olivine and its metamorphic varieties is dissolved in diluted hydrochloric acid having concentration of 10 - 30 % of concentrated acid, predominantly 20%.
- Dissolution of the rockforming mineral olivine (Mg,Fe) 2 SiO 4 by hydrochloric acid may be presented by following general formula:
- the process of dissolution is carried out in closed cycle during time interval from 5 to 300 min depending on extent of rock powdering, its activity and acid concentration.
- hydrochloric acid is regenerated and recycled by special pipeline back to the dissolution stage.
- Silicon dioxide and undissolved metals and minerals are separated by modern separation technique such as gravitational, chemical, electromagnetic, while SiO 2 intended for production as 99 % purity powder is washed, dewatered, dried and stored.
- SiO 2 is subjected to additional chemical purification and directed into the vacuum electron-beam furnace.
- Other undissolved mineral species and native metals amounting 0.1 - 1.0 % of the rock are subjected to selective enrichment by the gravitational, electromagnetic and chemical methods, then with the aim of production of pure and extrapure metals, these materials are subjected to selective reduction by the methods of hydrogen, cathodic, or high temperature metallurgical vacuum electron-beam reduction and casting.
- Dissolved rock species in the form of chlorides of magnesium and other metals are separated and purified by the methods of electro-membrane separation or chemical precipitation, therewith MgCl 2 is transferred to Mg(OH) 2 and then to MgO.
- Remaining metal chlorides similar to above mentioned process are converted into corresponding hydroxides and oxides with subsequent electrochemical regeneration and recovering of hydrochloric acid and water back to the dissolution stage.
- the hydroxides and oxides including MgO are subjected to selective reduction by the methods of hydrogen, cathodic, or high temperature metallurgical vacuum electron-beam reduction and casting depending on nature of metal and necessary purity.
- Produced MgO after high temperature treatment can be used for production of refractory materials, dead-burned magnesia for medicine and agriculture as high quality mineral fertilizer, or in combination with MgCl 2 for Sorel cement production.

If humidity is more than 2 %, the crushed rock before further powdering is calcined up to 600 °C during 2 hours for full dewatering and activation, then the preliminary crushed rock is grinded up to particle size of 0.9 mm in ball mill.
- the undissolved part of rock is separated onto 400 g of SiO 2 and 8 g of chromospinelides (FeCr 2 O 4 ) which were dried in oven during 2 hours.
- the resulting product is 99 % silicon dioxide and pure chromospinelide in the form of powder with micronsize particles.
- Dissolved rock components mainly MgCl 2 and FeCI 2 , were separated by addition of ammonium hydroxide NH 4 OH (about 50 g) up to solution pH of 5-6 resulting in precipitation of iron hydroxide, Fe(OH) 2 , which is extracted by separation on the centrifuge.

- the magnesium and iron hydroxides are subjected to heat treatment at temperatures over 600 °C, whereupon 420 g of MgO and 95 g of Fe O 3 are obtained in the form of pure fine powder with particle size of 10 microns.
- the extracted oxides in the form of powder are filled into the molds positioned into the vacuum furnace. After evacuation up to pressure of 10 "4 torr the furnace was heated up to melting temperatures, 1 100 °C for iron and 1900 °C for magnesium.
