Method to make nests of useful components by way of accumulation

Abstract

Experimental evaluation is given for mineral preconcentration in a bed of a sorption collector in percolation of low concentration useful components from aqueous solutions of salts. Sorption collectors represented by interlayers of lignite, peat, marble and vermiculite are included in an evaporation barrier installed in subsurface zone of rock mass aeration. Accumulation properties of such geochemical sorption barriers are examined. Migrating solution was aqueous solutions of salts of cobaltous and nickelous nitrates. It has been found feasible to shape beneficiation zones under up-going capillary permeation of the solutions through the sorption barriers in the zone of aeration in rock mass.
