Leaching of Ni-Cu-Fe-S matte

Nickel is selectively leached efficiently and rapidly from Ni-Cu-Fe-S matte under oxidizing conditions at ordinary pressure by controlling in combination the following variables: (1) the acid-to-copper mole ratio in the leaching solution, (2) the temperature, and (3) the sulfur content of the matte,...

Zusammenfassung:Nickel is selectively leached efficiently and rapidly from Ni-Cu-Fe-S matte under oxidizing conditions at ordinary pressure by controlling in combination the following variables: (1) the acid-to-copper mole ratio in the leaching solution, (2) the temperature, and (3) the sulfur content of the matte, whereby an enriched nickel solution is obtained low in copper and iron.
