Question 7

Alumina Leaching

Answer 7

Bayer’s Method
Impurities: SiO2, FeO, TiO2

Ore+NaOH->X
X+CO2->Al2O3

Al2O3 + NaOH +3H2O
–>2Na[Al(OH)4]

+CO2–>Al2O3.xH2O

1470K–>Al2O3

Question 8

Leaching Ag/Au

Answer 8

Ore+CN+O2 =>X
X+Zn=>M

4Au +8CN- +2H2O + O2
=>4[M(CN)2]- +4OH-

+Zn=>[Zn(CN)4]²- +2Au
