Geometallurgical characterisation of Zn-Pb mine waste in view of (near) zero-waste valorisation; Plombières, East Belgium KU Leuven
The aim of this study is to determine the spatial variability in the mineralogy and total geochemistry, including base and critical metals such as indium, germanium and gallium of a Zn-Pb tailing at Plombières (eastern Belgium). We will specify the solid-phase speciation and map the distribution of the metals in the minerals, evaluate the availability of the metals for further processing, and determine the applicability of the geometallurgical ...
Characterization of Mine Waste from a Former Pb–Zn Mining Site: Reactivity of Minerals During Sequential Extractions KU Leuven
An integrated mineralogical and chemical characterization approach was applied to different types of mine waste collected from the ancient Pb–Zn mining area of Plombières. The combination of different methods to determine (pseudo-)total element concentrations, sequential extractions, and quantitative mineralogical analysis provided detailed information on the reactivity of minerals in the waste, as well as the associated metal(loid) release ...
