Silver losses from ammoniacal solutions on complex sulphide and chalcopyrite ammonia leach residues
Authors:S Acharya  S Anand  RP Das
Abstract:Extraction and subsequent loss of silver from leach liquor during oxidative ammonia leaching of complex sulphide and chalcopyrite concentrates have been observed. The lost silver value from the leach liquor was unrecoverable when the residues were treated with ammonia-ammonium sulphate buffer (pH=9.5) solutions at 27°C. However, when the same slurry was heated to 75°C in an autoclave under an atmosphere of oxygen, almost all the silver value could be redissolved. The leach residues lost their silver absorbance property from ammoniacal solutions on repeatedly heating and cooling the leached slurries in the presence of oxygen. In this work, silver losses from ammoniacal solutions on various leach residues, synthetic iron oxides, and freshly precipitated Fe(II) and Fe(III) hydroxides are reported. None of the major constituents present in the leach residues were responsible for the silver losses but small amounts of Fe(II) associated with the residues could take up silver from the leach solutions.
