This study investigated metals removal from lead-zinc mine tailings using bioleaching and followed by sulfide precipitation. Metals were dissolved from the tailings by the bacteria in a bioleaching reactor. During a 10% pulp density bioleaching experiment, approximately 0.82% Pb, 97.38% Zn, and 71.37% Fe were extracted after 50 days.

Engineering design for the two tailing dams is necessary before the mines can be exploited. In this study, a series of laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the static and cyclic mechanical properties of four tailings, including the coarse iron tailing and fine iron tailing from the Yuhezhai iron mine, and the coarse copper

Get Price07/05/2015· Mine sites typically manage tailings by constructing ponds secured by dams. According to the web site miningfacts.org, another strategy is to produce thickened tailings, which are pressed or have chemicals added to remove excess water. Thickened tailings can be mixed with cement and used in construction or as backfill in underground mines.

01/10/2017· Lead-zinc tailings used for this study were collected from a lead-zinc mine plant in Shaoguan, China. Lead-zinc mine tailings were prepared by crushing and screening the material to particle sizes below 74 μm. A representative sample of the mine tailings was pulverized to conduct the chemical and mineralogical analysis.

19/08/2020· An open pit mine in sub-Saharan Africa is operating in a jurisdiction where relations are tense, there is artisanal mining and water is always an issue. The tailings dam seems sound for the moment but may become an issue in the years to come. Communities live downstream from both the pit and tailings dam, and allegations of pollution are routine.
Get PriceAcid mine drainage problems were experienced in a Pb–Zn mine operation at Lechang, in the northern part of Guangdong Province, People's Republic of China. Geochemical and acid generation evaluations were made on fresh tailings including tailings fine, tailings sand and high sulphide tailings, and oxidised tailings with the aim of providing information on mine rehabilitation.
