Аннотация:Проведены тестовые исследования состава хвостов обогащения Олимпиадинской золотоизвлекательной фабрики с целью определения возможности вовлечения их в переработку для повторного извлечения золота. Установлен минеральный состав окисленных, первичных руд и хвостов обогащения. Рекомендовано повторное извлечение драгметалла из хвостов обогащения с предварительным измельчением материала до 90 % класса крупности -0,071 мм.
Subsoil users take practical interest in tailings piles of gold mines. The composition the Olimpiada processing plant tailings was tested in order to determine feasibility of secondary gold recovery. Mineral associations of oxidized ore, primary ore and tailings are described. It is found that both ore and tailings have analogous qualitative composition of minerals. Supergene minerals of iron, arsenic, antimony and tungsten are widely spread over tailings ponds. Gold content is lower in tailings than in ore by an order of magnitude. Native gold is detected in the form of free particles in classes -0.07+0.045 and -0.045+0 mm after additional milling of tailings. Splintered grains of gold-bearing minerals-aurostibite and johnasonite-are also found in coarser size grades of tailings without pre-milling. As compared with ore, tailings contain mobile gold (water-soluble, adsorbed and ferri-form) of about 15-20%. It is recommended to carry out re-extraction of gold from tailings after pre-milling down to size grade -0.071 mm at the content up to 90%. It is possible that the precious metal accumulates in the water solution of the tailings ponds with time; for this reason, it is advised to undertake monitoring of gold content in the liquid phase of tailings ponds and to find efficient technologies of gold recovery.
