Letlhakane project: case study in complex uranium mineralogy and its geometallurgical implications

Abstract: Uranium mineralisation within the Letlhakane tenement, Botswana, is complex and characterised by three different ores (primary, oxidised and secondary). From a geometallurgical viewpoint, most uranium occurs in coarse grained, and/or highly soluble minerals; favourable characteristics for conventional extractive metallurgical methods. However, there are several factors presenting challenging metallurgical issues including: the presence of refractory ore (,30% of the uranium); the frequent encapsulation of uran… Show more
