Bioleaching tests at different dosages of pyrolusite ore, pH and inoculation amounts of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans were studied. The results showed that the time of the bio-oxidation process was decreased obviously and the arsenic leaching rate reached 94.4% after the bioleaching. The bio-oxidation of arsenopyrite and the effective extraction of manganese from pyrolusite were achieved by the bioleaching process. After bioleaching, the leaching rate of gold from the reaction residues reached 95.8% by cyanide leaching. In the bio-oxidation process, pyrolusite increased the redox potential of the solution to accelerate the bioleaching rate. The experiment showed that there were two reaction modes in the bioleaching process.展开更多

Sequential extraction analysis (SEA) was supplemented by mineralogical investigation of both bulk samples and heavy mineral fractions using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM/EDS). The mineralogy of Fe and Mn oxides was studied by voltammetry of microparticles (VMP) and diffuse reflectance spectrometry (DRS). Zinc and Pb were predominantly bound in the reducible fraction attributed to Fe oxides and Mn oxides (mainly birnessite, Na4Mn14O27.9H2O), which were detected in soils by XRD and SEM/EDS. In contrast, Cd was the most mobile contaminant and was predominantly present in the exchangeable fraction. Arsenic was bound to the residual and reducible fractions (corresponding to Fe oxides or to unidentified Fe-Pb arsenates). SEM/EDS observations indicate the predominant affinity of Pb for Mn oxides, and to a lesser extent, for Fe oxides. Thus, a more suitable SEA procedure should be used for these mining-affected soils to distinguish between the contaminant fraction bound to Mn oxides and Fe oxides.展开更多

There are two large classes of ores: ferrous and manganese-ferrous ores. Each class is divided into groups according to its mineral composition. In this investigation, ferrous ore sample (Chagodostcha) and manganese-ferrous ore samples (Totyma-2 and Mologa-2) were considered. All samples in the initial state are contaminated with a-quartz and Ab-An feldspars. Thus for purification of the samples, direct flotation method with kerosene agent were used. As a result, almost all impurities were removed from the samples. With the X-ray diffraction method, the authors identified following phases: goethite (ferrous ore) and birnessite (manganese-ferrous ores). Also, the authors used electron probe microanalysis of the original and purified probes and it showed the presence of such impurities as Ca, K, Mg and Ba in birnessite from the manganese-ferrous ores, and AI and Mn impurities in goethite from the ferrous ore. All ore minerals are in a nanocrystalline state (crystallite size is about 10 nm).展开更多

Depend can be classified into different groups. In this paper, we review re cent progress in the field of multiferroics induced by different forms of charge ordering. In addition to a general description of charge order and electronic ferroelectricity, we focus on two specific systems: (1) charge order with frustration in RFe2O4 (R=Lu, Yb) system; (2) charge ordered perovskite manganites of the type (R1-xCax)MnO3 (R=La, Pr). The charge ordering can be tuned by external electric fields, which results in pronounced magnetoelectric effects and strong dielectric tunability. Other materials and possible candidates with charge order induced multiferroics are also briefly summarized.展开更多
