It has been shown that Ag 2S enhanced the yields of bioleaching of chalcopyrite but inhibited the bio oxidation of pyrite. The addition of Ag 2S selectively increased the copper dissolution from the chalcopyrite containing ores in shake flasks with a recovery of 85.3% compared with 24.3% without Ag 2S, while slightly decreased the iron yields from 51% to 41.8%. The copper extraction of the chalcoopyrite containing waste rock in column leaching charged with 18 kg mass increased up to 21.7% in the presence of Ag 2S, while only 3.4% in the absence of the catalyst. The mechanism of Ag 2S catalysis could be explained well by the "Mixed potential model".展开更多

On the basis of researches on these typical deposits, the mechanism of leaching-drawing mineralization of Mesozoic geothermal water and the related model are put forward in this paper in the light of the time interval between rock and formation ages as well as hydrogen, oxygen, sulphur and lead isotope geochemical characteristics. The major metallogenic process occurred in volcanic rock layers. The ore-forming fluids are geothermal water coming from meteoric water and circulating at shallow layers. This geothermal water leached and absorbed ore-forming materials from its country rocks during its flowing (such metallogenic elements as silver, lead-zinc and sulphur mainly came from consolidated volcanic rocks), leading to the formation of meso - epithermal silver deposits.展开更多
