Adsorption mechanism of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole on chalcopyrite and sphalerite surfaces:Ab initio and spectroscopy studies

Interaction mechanism of the collector,2-mercaptobenzothiazole（MBT）,with chalcopyrite and sphalerite surfaces were investigated by Fourier transform infrared（FTIR） and density functional theory,Results of FTIR showed that some characteristic peaks of MBT were observed on the chalcopyrite surface,including C=N,C=N-S and C-S stretching vibration peaks,and the adsorption product was CuMBT.But there were no characteristic peaks of MBT on the sphalerite surface.The thione molecular form of MBT was the most efficient and stable,N and exocyclic S were the more favourable reactive sites for nucleophilic attacked by metal atoms.Compared with ZnS（110）,MBT is more readily adsorbed on CuFeS2（112）.Attachment of MBT occurs due to strong bonding through exocyclic S p and s orbits with Cu d orbit on CuFeS2（112） and electron transfer from Cu atom to S atom.Under the vacuum condition,MBT in the form of thione molecular cannot be adsorbed on ZnS（110） spontaneously.

Selective depression of copper-activated sphalerite by polyaspartic acid during chalcopyrite flotation

Environmentally friendly flotation reagent,polyaspartic acid(PAPA),was tested as a potential selective depressant in the flotation separation of chalcopyrite and Cu-activated sphalerite.The depression mechanism of PAPA was revealed by contact angle measurements,Zeta potential measurements,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)analysis and inductively coupled plasma(ICP)measurement.The micro-flotation tests with single minerals showed that PAPA selectively depressed Cu-activated sphalerite,while chalcopyrite remained floatable.Moreover,a concentrate containing 31.40%Cu with a recovery of 92.43%was obtained in flotation tests of artificially mixed minerals.Results of contact angle measurements,Zeta potential measurements and FT-IR spectrum revealed that PAPA exerted a much stronger adsorption on Cu-activated sphalerite surface than on chalcopyrite surface,preventing the further adsorption of sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate(DDTC)on its surface.ICP measurements indicated that PAPA had an excellent complexing ability with Cu^(2+)in flotation pulp,weakening the activation of Cu species on sphalerite surface and producing selective depression.

Revegetation of Copper Mine Tailings with Ryegrass and Willow

To restore vegetation on metal mine tailings is very difficult because theyoften contain high concentrations of heavy metals, low nutrient content and low water retentioncapacity. This study involved 3 experiments that evaluated the effects of 4 treatment amendments:montmorillonite, rice straw, organic manure and chemical fertilizer on the growth of ryegrass(Lolium perenne L.) and willow (Salix viminalis L.) with Cu and Zn mine tailings from two miningareas. The results showed that ryegrass was the most tolerant of 4 crops to Cu toxicity. Also whenorganic manure, which contained high concentrations of inorganic salts, was added to the minetailings, it significantly hindered ryegrass growth (P = 0.05). Meanwhile, with ryegrass organicmanure significantly increased (P = 0.05) the extractable Cu concentration in both mine tailings.When montmorillonite was used as a mine tailings amendment with willow, the height and tress numberat the 1st cut were significantly greater (P = 0.05) than a control without montmorillonite. Howeverthere was no significant difference for height, tress number, dry weight or root dry weight at the2nd cut. So, amendment applications to reduce metal toxicity and increase nutrients retention inmine tailings were essential during revegetation of mine tailings.

Effects of copper ions on dissolution mechanism of marmatite

The dissolution mechanism of marmatite in the presence of Cu^(2+)was intensively studied by experiments and density functional theory(DFT) calculations. Leaching experiments showed that Cu^(2+)accelerated marmatite dissolution at high temperatures(above 55 ℃), but the trend was reversed at low temperatures(below 45 ℃), which may be because the reaction mechanism between Cu^(2+)and marmatite changed from surface adsorption to bulk substitution with increasing temperature. The substitution reaction caused more zinc atoms in the marmatite crystal lattice to be released and enhanced the electrochemical reactivity, while the adsorption of copper ions at low temperatures would passivate marmatite, thus inhibiting the reaction process. DFT calculations showed that the energy of the substitution reaction was more negative than that of the adsorption reaction at high temperatures, which further verified the proposed mechanism.

Two Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Colonizing Maize Under Different Phosphorus Regimes in a Compartment Cultivation System

A modified glass bead compartment cultivation system was used tocompare some chemical and biolog- ical properties of the twoarbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Glmomus mosseae and Glomusversiforme using maize (Zea mays) as the host plant with four addedlevels of available phosphorus (P). The proportion of host plant rootlength infected was determined t harvest. Shoot and root yields andnutrient concentra- tions were determined, together with the nutrientconcentrations in the AM fungal external mycelium. The morphology ofvarious mycorrhizal structures of the two AM fungi was also comparedby microscopic obser- vation.

Quantum-mechanical study of effect of lattice defects on surface properties and copper activation of sphalerite surface

The electronic properties of sphalerite(110)surface bearing Fe,Mn and Cd impurities were calculated using density-functional theory,and the effects of impurities on the copper activation of sphalerite were investigated.Calculated results indicate that both Fe and Mn impurities narrow the band gap of sphalerite surface and lead to the Fermi level shifting to conduction band.Impurity levels composed of Fe 3d and Mn 3d orbital appearing in band gap are beneficial to electrons transfer from the valence band to the conduction band and promote the surface conductivity and the electrochemical activity.The results show that Fe and Mn impurities cannot be replaced by Cu atom,which reduces the exchange sites(Zn)for Cu atom,hence Fe-and Mn-bearing sphalerites are hard to be activated by copper.Cd impurity has little effect on electronic structure of sphalerite surface;however,Cd atom is easily replaced by Cu atom,and this is the reason why the Cd-bearing sphalerite can be easily floated.

Predictive GIS Model for Potential Mapping of Cu,Pb,Zn Mineralization

ABSTRACT The geologic features indicative of Cu, Pb, Zn mineral deposits in a area are fractures （structure）, and host rock sediments. Datasets used include Cu, Pb, Zn deposit points record, geological data, remote sensing imagery （Landsat TM5）. The mineral potential of the study area is assessed by means of GIS based geodata integration techniques for generating predictive maps. GIS predictive model for Cu, Pb, Zn potential was carried out in this study area （Weixi） using weight of evidence. The weights of evidence modeling techniques is the data driven method in which the spatial associations of the indicative geologic features with the known mineral occurrences in the area are quantified, and weights statistically assigned to the geologic features. The best predictive map generated by this method defines 24 % the area having potential for Cu, Pb, Zn mineralization further exploration work.

ZnO whiskers growth on the surface of Sn9Zn/Cu solder joints in concentrator silicon solar cells solder layer

ZnO whiskers observation on the surface of SnZn/Cu solder joints in concentrator silicon solar cells solder layer is reported. In the experiment,SnZn/Cu samples are left in laboratory after reflow soldering for two years before an examination by SEM,then ZnO whiskers can be observed obviously,which grows out from the rich-Zn phase of the samples and causes electrical short circuit in the electronics appliances,which demonstrates that the SnZn solder shows a risk for the short circuiting failure of an electronic device. Moreover,the growth mechanism of ZnO whiskers is researched based on cracked oxide theory,which provides the reference support for SnZn solders application.

Oxygen pressure acid leaching of Gacun complex Cu concentrates

The treatment of the Gacun complex Cu concentrate with high contents of Pb,Zn,Ag,etc by oxygen pressure acid leaching was studied.It is unusual that tetrahedrite,whose treatment was rarely studied,is the primary copper mineral of the concentrates.Most of silver also occurs in the mineral.The optimum operating parameters of oxygen pressure acid leaching were established by conditional tests.Pilot scale test was carried out under the parameters,and the leaching rates of copper and zinc are as high as 97.10% and 89.83% while lead and silver are transformed into sulfate and sulfide respectively and stay in leaching residue.The copper and zinc in lixivium were reclaimed by extraction-electrowinning and purification-electrowinning,respectively,and the lead and silver in the residue were reclaimed separately by chloride leaching and thiourea leaching.The extraction rate of copper achieves 96%,and the leaching rates of lead and silver reach 90% and 95%,respectively.
