    The mined ore is usually crushed into small chunks and heaped on an impermeable plastic or clay lined leach pad where it can be irrigated with a leach solution to dissolve the valuable metals. While sprinklers are occasionally used for irrigation, more often operations use drip irrigation to minimize evaporation, provide more uniform distribution of the leach solution, and avoid damaging the exposed mineral. The solution then percolates through the heap and leaches both the target and other minerals. This process, called the "leach cycle," generally takes from one or two months for simple oxide ores (e.g. mo

    The mined ore is usually crushed into small chunks and heaped on an impermeable plastic or clay lined leach pad where it can be irrigated with a leach solution to dissolve the valuable metals. While sprinklers are occasionally used for irrigation, more often operations use drip irrigation to minimize evaporation, provide more uniform distribution of the leach solution, and avoid damaging the exposed mineral. The solution then percolates through the heap and leaches both the target and other minerals. This process, called the "leach cycle," generally takes from one or two months for simple oxide ores (e.g. most gold ores) to two years for nickel laterite ores. The leach solution containing the dissolved minerals is then collected, treated in a process plant to recover the target mineral and in some cases precipitate other minerals, and recycled to the heap after reagent levels are adjusted. Ultimate recovery of the target mineral can range from 30% of contained run-of-mine dump leaching sulfide copper ores to over 90% for the ores that are easiest to leach, some oxide gold ores. The essential questions to address during the process of the heap leaching are: • Can the investment of crushing the ore be justified by the potential increase in recovery and rate of recovery?• How should the concentration of acid be altered over time in order to produce a solution that can be economically treated?• How does the form of a heap affect the recovery and solution grade?• Under any given set of circumstances, what type of recovery can be expected before the leach solution quality drops below a critical limit?

  • What is Heap Leaching? (with picture) - wiseGEEK

    May 06, 2020  Paul Scott Last Modified Date: 26 June 2020 . Heap leaching is an industrial process for extracting precious metals and minerals by dissolving them from ore with liquids known as leaching solutions. The process is commonly used to extract metals such as gold, copper, and uranium yellowcake in addition to several other minerals.

    Heap leaching (HL) is a flexible and economic mineral processing method, commonly used to extract gold from low-grade gold ores. In this process, ore is firstly crushed to fine particles. By spraying leaching solution to the large piles, the gold-containing solution is leached.

  • Learn About the Heap Leaching Process Mining Techniques

    Jan 10, 2019  Heap leach mining is an industrial hydrometallurgical process, where the metal contained in an ore body is extracted by dissolution. The target mineral is leached with an aqueous solution whereby the mineral is dissolved into what is called a “pregnant” solution which, is then captured and later recovered downstream in the processing line.

    Apr 25, 2018  Heap leaching requires less aggressive techniques: a chemical solution is simply sprayed on heap ore. As the solution percolates through the heaped ore, it dissolves the gold. The solution is then collected and treated further by adsorption. The heap leach stack must be porous enough to allow the solution to drip or to drain through the stack.
