In addition the concentrate contains the following elements* Au — — Ag 1.1 oz/ton (approx) 0.25 oz/ton Cu — Co " 0.6. - 1.4 % 0.6 - 0.8 % Now the gross value of t h i s concentrate i s r Au ™ 1.1 oz ® 35.00 — - • S3.50 Co — - • 0.6 % - 12#/ton @ 1.50 — - 18.00 Cu 0.6 % - 12#/ton @ — .12 1.50 58.00 — — 58.00 Returns when shipping the concentrate to Tacoma: Gross Yalue of Au plus Cu 40.00 Freight, Treatment, etc Net Return '•- •Now Gross value including Cobalt Present Net Return — • —- 16.00 — 24.00 >—— •—-«— Therefore, value available f o r Treatment 24.00 58.00 24.00 34.00 34.00 58.00 Thus i n considering a treatment method, i t ' s cost including Au and Co losses, overhead, amortization, etc., should be kept down to about $25.00 per ton i f a reasonable and certain p r o f i t i s to be shown. This research on the concentrates was undertaken with the following objects i n view. (1) to determine whether the Cobalt could be profitablyextracted i n a marketable form. (2) t o determine whether a suitable recovery of the Au content could be obtained i n the course of the Cobalt extraction. The values contained i n s i l v e r and copper are of secondary importance and t h e i r recovery was considered as l i k e l y to p a r a l l e l that of the other metals. TREATMENT OF RAW CONCTBNTRATES WITH STJLPHORIC ACID Preliminary work carried out i n the ore dressing and metallurgical laboratories of the Department of Mines and Resources i n Ottawa during July and August 1940, under the supervision of Mr. F.A. Forward, indicated that treatment of the concentrate d i r e c t l y with hot strong sulphuric acid might offer a suitable solution to the problem of recovering both cobalt and gold from the concentrates. The f i r s t f i v e (5) tests were devoted to t h i s method of treatment and t h e i r general procedure and reasons are as follows: (1) Concentrate added to strong b o i l i n g H SO REASON: to convert cobalt, copper to water soluble sulphatesjat the same time freeing the gold so that i t may be cyanided. In attaining t h i s r e s u l t iron was converted to an undesirable water soluble sulphate. (2) F i l t e r the"Quiescent Mixture"while hot. • REASON: Arsenic interferes with the recovery of cobalt and t h i s serves as one simple method of eliminating the arsenic because Arsenious Oxide (ASgOg) i s soluble i n hot acid. Moreover the. acid i s easily freed of the As 0 because i t settles out on cooling. (5) The Precipitate i s given an oxidizing roast below . 725°C. REASON: The undesirable water soluble iron sulphate i s converted to insoluble iron oxide (Feg0 ) between 600 - 7B5°C. whereas the water soluble cobalt and copper sulphates remain unchanged. 3 The best recovery from this series of tests was 93 fo recovery of cobalt. Further work on sulphatihg raw concentrates was d i s continued because an experiment on roasted calcines performed by Mr. Alfred G-. Lyle proved s u f f i c i e n t l y attractive to warrant further investigation. PRELIMINARY ROASTING(A) Low Sulphur, Low Arsenic. Low sulphur and low arsenic calcines were obtained by an oxidizing roast of the concentrates. These roasts were carried out under two different conditions. The f i r s t by placing the concentrates i n a moderately hot furnace (500-550°0.) and gradually r a i s i n g the temperature up to between 750 and 850°C. The second by placing the concentrates d i r e c t l y into the furnace at 750-850° C. I t was found the gradual r a i s i n g of the temperature adversely affected the elimination of arsenic. These roasts were continued at the higher temperatures u n t i l completely roasted. (B) High Sulphur, Low Arsenic. High sulphur and low arsenic calcines were obtained by a reducing roast of the concentrates. These roasts were obtained by placing the concentrates d i r e c t l y into a hot furnace (750-850C.) and cutting short the roasting time; stopping when the arsenic flame died and cooling i n a confined atmosphere. This type of roast may be properly described as a "reducing roast" because during the arsenic elimination the concentrates of arsenic vapor. are enveloped by an atmosphere For a comparison of the r e s u l t i n g calcines from t h i s type of roast to the foregoing oxidizing roast note the following chart.

These roasts gave very low arsenic and low sulphide sulphurs. (3) Reducing roasts carried out at high temperature and cooled i n open atmosphere. These roasts gave low arsenics and moderately high sulphide sulphures (12%). See Tests 30A and 34A. (4) Reducing roasts carried out at high temperatures and cooled i n confined atmosphere. These roasts gave low arsenic and high sulphide sulphur (21$). See tests 40A to 44A i n c l u s i v e . 6 TREATMENT OF'LOW SULPHUR, LOW ARSENIC CALCINES (A) MAINLY WITH SALT AND SULPHURIC ACID This treatment i n general was conducted as follows: (1) Mixed the preliminary calcine with varying percentages of s a l t and s u f f i c i e n t sulphuric acid t o thoroughly wet a l l the calcine. (2) Roasted t h i s mixture at a moderate temperature (500-550*0.) to allow the sulphuric acid and salt time to react and form primary sulphates. (3) Ground these primary sulphates to pass through an 80 mesh screen and gave them an oxidizing roast at temperatures varying from 600 - 700°C. This would break up water soluble iron sulphate into water i n soluble i r o n oxide ( F e 0 ) . g 3 For further d e t a i l s of t h i s treatment method see the following t e s t s : No.9G2 No. 14G No. 141 No.160 N0.I8B 90 9G3 14D 14J 16H 19B 9D 10C 14E 14N 16J 20C 9E 10G 14F 140 17A 22G 9F 15 14H 16B 17B No. 8 At f i r s t these treatments embodied the use of small percentages of carbon which were thought to help i n the elimination of arsenic by reducing the stable arsenic compounds to the more v o l a t i l e areenious compounds. However there was not s u f f i c i e n t advantages gained by i t s use and so i t s addition was discontinued i n l a t e r treatments. Tests 14B, 14C, 14D, 14E, 14F and 14M show that good recoveries may be obtained by t h i s treatment. For example i n Test 14C the use of 5 fo s a l t and 80 % strong sulphuric acid and roasted not above 650° 0. gave 92 % water soluble cobalt. I t should be noted that heating the primary sulphates from 550 to 650°C. decomposed the water soluble iron sulphate. This decomposition released sulphur t r i o x i d e which had a m i l d sulphating action; increasing the recovery of the cobalt and copper by forming additional water soluble sulphates of these metals. (B) MAINLY WITH StJLFHURIO ACID This treatment method was carried out i n general, as follows: (1) Added s u f f i c i e n t sulphuric acid to thoroughly moisten the preliminary calcine. (2) Roasted the mixture at a moderate temperature (500 - 550C.) to allow formation of primary sulphates. (3) Ground these primary sulphates to minus 80 mesh and gave them an oxidizing roast to break up i r o n sulphate to water insoluble iron oxide (FegO^). For d e t a i l s and r e s u l t s see t e s t s : No. 10B No. 14B 10D 14ff 10E 20D 10F The best recovery that was obtained by t h i s method was 82 % of the cobalt i n Test No. 20D„ (G.) MAENLY WITH SALT , This treatment method i n general was simply a chloridizing roast. The tests were carried out at varying temperatures from 350° C. up to 650°C. For r e s u l t s and details see tests: •No. 6 No. 21D 9B 22B The best recovery obtained by t h i s method was 72 % i n Test No. 21D. Where the c h l o r i d i z i n g roasts were carried out at temperatures exceeding 450°C. the recovery was very poor because the cobalt chloride was broken down to water insoluble cobalt oxide. (D) MAINLY WITH HYDROCHLORIC ACID This treatment i n general was carried out as follows: (1) Calcine was mixed with s u f f i c i e n t hydrochloric acid to moisten i t thoroughly. (2) This mixture was slowly dried at a low temperature and roasted below 450° C. At t h i s temperature any water soluble iron chloride formed i s broken down to water insoluble i r o n oxide (Fe 0 ) while water soluble cobalt and copper remain unchanged. For results and d e t a i l s see tests: No. 21B No. 22N No. 31B 210 24A 31C 21M 24B 33D 22G 240 32B This treatment gave f a i r recoveries of copper and cobalt especially i n Test No. 24A, where only 1G % hydrochloric acid was used, gave a 72 fo recovery of cobalt. This treat- ment i s p a r t i c u l a r l y attractive because of i t s simplicity and the low temperatures involved. TREATMENT OF HIGH SULPHUR, .LOW ARSENIC CALCINES (A) MAINLY BYjSULPHATIZING- ROAST AIDED BY SULPHURIC ACID This treatment i n general was use of the high,sulphide a sulphatizing roast making sulphur content of the calcines augmented by sulphuric a c i d . These roasts were carried out at moderately low-temperatures (350 - 450° C.) sulphating action was When complete the temperature was raised to 650°C. to break up any water soluble iron sulphate. For d e t a i l s and r e s u l t s see t e s t s : No. 40D No. 40E 40G40K I t should be noted that the f i n a l roasting at the higher temperature to break up soluble i r o n sulphate resulted i n higher cobalt recoveries as experienced i n the treatment of low sulphur, low arsenic calcines with s a l t sulphuric a c i d . See page 6. The best recovery was soluble cobalt. and Test No. 40E which gave 74 fo water ,(B) MAINLY'BY SIILEHAT1ZING ROAST AIDED BY SALT This treatment i n general was as follows: (1) Calcine mixed with small percentage of s a l t . 12 (2) Calcine given a sulphating roast at low temperatures 350 - 450° C. (3) Calcine given, an oxidizing roast at higher temperature (625°C.) to decrease soluble iron and increase soluble cobalt. For details and results see tests: No. 30C No. 41B No. 440 No. 45F 40H 42B • 44D 45G- 40N 43B 44E 45B The best recovery was i n t e s t 40N which gave 90 fo recovery of the cobalt with but l i t t l e i n t e r f e r i n g water soluble i r o n . (0) MAINLY BY SOLFBATlZING- ROAST AIDED BY HYDROCHLORIC ACID This treatment i n general was carried out as i n foregoing sulphatizing roast aided with s a l t excepting that s a l t i s replaced by Hydrochloric Acid. For summary of results and d e t a i l s see tests: 30B, 540„ 34D. The best recovery was obtained i n Test No. 30B which gave 82 fo recovery of the cobalt. However an excessive amount of hydrochloric acid was required to a t t a i n t h i s high recovery. (D) MAINLY BY SULPHATIZINGThis treatment involved only the use of the high sulphide sulphur content of the preliminary calcines to e f f e c t a sulphating roast. This roast was carried out at a low temperature (550°C.) under a c l o s e l y controlled atmosphere. "When the sulphating action i s complete the temp, i s raised (625°C.) t o effect the decomposition of water soluble iron sulphate,taking advantage of the released sulphur t r i o x i d e to give a "secondary sulphating" action. For details and results see t e s t s : Ho. 40B No. 40F 40C 45E No. 45K The best test, 45K, gave 68 fo recovery of the cobalt. PRECIPITATION OF COBALT FROM LEACH SOLUTION The recovery of cobalt from the water leach solutions i s easily obtained by standard practise. In evidence of t h i s t e s t s No. 23, 23B, 23C were run and gave i n the order of 98 % recovery of the cobalt as cobalt carbonate. This i s e a s i l y converted into a marketable cobalt oxide product by caleing. There i s nothing to indicate that t h i s phase of the work w i l l present any d i f f i c u l t i e s . SUMMARY OF RESULTS (1) Although good recoveries were indicated by treatment of raw concentrates with excess sulphuric acid, the complexity of t h i s operation i n comparison to the simplicity of treatment of roasted concentrates made t h i s method very unattractive. (2) In the treatment of low sulphur, low arsenic calcines, the best recoveries were obtained by the use of salt and sulphuric acid. However, i n spite of the lower recoveries obtained by the use of hydrochloric acid alone, this treatment was more attractive than the s a l t and sulphuric acid treatment because of i t s comparative simplicity. (3) In the treatment of high sulphur low arsenic calcines the best recovery was obtained by the use of s a l t i n aiding the sulphating action. However, i n spite of the lower recoveries, s ^ ^ s s i = ^ f sulphating the calcines with the omission of any reagents, i s favored,because: (A) Simplified treatment. (B) Elimination of gold loss by chloridization, (4) The best treatment of the high sulphur low arsenic calcines by sulphating action alone, i s preferred to the best treatment of the low sulphur low arsenic calcines with hydrochloric acid because: (1) Simplified treatment. (2) Elimination of gold loss by c h l o r i d i z a t i o n . (5) Recovery of the cobalt from the leach solutions i s standard practise and w i l l offer no d i f f i c u l t i e s as shown by test No. 23. (6) Preliminary work on cyanidation of leached residues, indicated that no d i f f i c u l t y w i l l be encountered i n obtaining good gold recoveries, CONCLUSION From an analysis of the results embodied i n this research, i t may be concluded that by a combination of reducing and sulphatizing roasts a p r a c t i c a l and simple method of extracting the cobalt from the concentrates, at the same time freeing the gold so that i t i s amenable to cyanidation, i s possible. 14.
