Innovative technologies and extraction of commercial components from unconventional and difficult-to-process minerals and mining-and-processing waste

The technological capability of extraction of platinum from zonal basic-ultrabasic dunite ore is theoretically stated and experimentally proved. The article describes development of new selective complexing agents meant for extraction of sulfide minerals with emulsion gold shots. The authors also inform on a method and regimes of extra sulfur removal and platinum group metal extraction from final rejects at the Talnakh copper-nickel preparation plant with a view to their further introduction in backfilling mixtures as binding components.
