In the current leaching process, the majority of lead will precipitate during gold leaching as lead sulfate due to sulfide oxidation and the very low solubility of lead sulfate. Therefore, nitrate addition can also be explaining to increased gold extraction in chloride-bromide leaching. It is possible that nitrate act as excess oxidant leaching.

The mechanisms and the reaction products for the oxidation of sulfide ions in the presence lead sulfide (formed by the addition of lead(II) ions) have been established.

Subsequently, the hydrolysis of S 2 O 8 would generate H 2 O 2 and further lead to the Fenton reaction in the presence of Fe ...

The mass balance equation for the oxidation of sulfide ions via Reactions 3 and 4 in a CSTR can be represented as: (11) [S 2-] IN-[S 2-] OUT = τ (k 1 [O 2] [Pb] [S 2-] OUT + k 2 [O 2] [Pb] [CN-]) where k 1 is the rate constant for the lead sulfide catalysed sulfide ion oxidation reaction (which is a function of the dissolved oxygen and sulfide ...

Lead released by galena oxidation accumulates as cerussite and shannonite in the neutral-pH environment. ... The concentration of O 2 is significantly depleted by sulfide oxidation at depths between 30 and 40 m depth where there are elevated solid-phase concentrations of Pb, Cu, S, Fe and Zn, ...

That is, the process involves anodic oxidation of the sulfide, ... etc. Silver sulfide minerals in the ore follow the lead sulfide stream and cadmium sulfide follows the zinc. Silver and cadmium are separated from lead and zinc, respectively, in the subsequent metal extraction processes. The Broken Hill mines contain 6% lead and 10% zinc and ...

Pb(S) (Lead(II) Sulfide) Oxidation Number Oxidation State of Pb(S) To calculate the oxidation numbers for Pb(S), count the number of atoms, draw the lewis structure by adding bonds, assign electrons from each bond, and count the number of electrons assigned to each atom.

Lead sulfide nanoparticle (nano-PbS) released into environment can cause hazards to human or ecosystem. Nano-PbS potentially undergoes oxidation in the …

The presence of turbidites within the sulfide zone also causes local non-steady-state conditions that lead to enhanced sulfide oxidation within these layers (Yücel et al., 2010). Sulfide oxidation can also occur below the SMT or below the sulfide zone in some sediments, due to the presence of reactive iron in the underlying lacustrine sediment ...

In summary, during the air oxidation roasting process, As and S compounds could oxidize to As 2 O 3 (g) and SO 2 (g) under the controlled conditions of roasting temperature and the feed rate of air, and the preferential removal of arsenic and part of sulfur from the sulfide refractory gold ore can be realized by controlling the addition …

We have applied nanospectroscopy to examine the surface oxidation of the prototypic mineral lead sulfide in two states: 'oxidised' (oxidised in air for one year); and …

Abiotic sulfide oxidation kinetics improve when reduced iron and/or manganese are oxidized by oxygen to form oxidized metals which in turn oxidize sulfide. Biological sulfur oxidation relies on enzymes that have evolved to overcome these kinetic constraints to affect rapid sulfide oxidation. ... Only OH• can lead to formation of HS•. Even ...

Oxidation of sulfur may result in dissolution of lead similar to that of nano-Ag 2 S, while oxidation of lead can lower solubility due to formation of high-valence state lead. Different lead species may lead to different impacts on toxicity.

Further, when the oxidation of methyl phenyl sulfide was carried out using different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, the reaction did not reach completion using less than 8 mmol of H 2 O 2. However, when a large concentration was employed neither the conversion nor selectivity of the reaction was improved (Table 1, entries 10-13). The ...

Abstract. Oxidation of sulfide minerals releases sulfuric acid and dissolved metals, with iron sulfides pyrite (FeS 2) and pyrrhotite (Fe (1−x) S) recognized as the most common acid-forming minerals. Several factors control the oxidation rate including: the oxidant type, sulfide morphology, microbial action, and trace element contents.
