520 | |a"Current Canadian practice in the milling of uranium-bearing ores commonly involves fine grinding followed by acid leach/ion exchange. The acid leach may be followed instead by solvent extraction. Alkaline leaching has been done, and in situ bacteriological leaching is of interest. Tailings disposal operations are necessary and create environmental problems. Uranium-mill wastes are unique because of their radioactivity. Some of the radioisotopes present may require an individual control procedure. Radium-226 is particularly important because it is the most hazardous of all isotopes found in the tailings. Acid and heavy-metal removal is conventionally done by the addition of lime, but other means are available, such as with limestone, sodium hydroxide, ammonia, silicon alloys or by sulphide precipitation. Modifications to unit operations in the mill process may be required to produce more acceptable effluents. Increased water recycling may be necessary to meet regulatory standards"--Abstract, p. i. |
