Zd. Zivkovic et Nd. Strbac, KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF LEACHING OF LOW-QUALITY BOEHMITE BAUXITE WITH HYDROCHLORIC-ACID, Hydrometallurgy, 36(2), 1994, pp. 247-258
The results of the study of the kinetics and mechanism of the process
of leaching low-quality bauxite with hydrochloric acid are presented.
Results obtained show that leaching of about 95% of Fe2O3 is achieved
from the basic mineral, hematite, together with up to 5% of Al2O3, whi
ch is contained in the bauxite as the mineral kaolinite.
