Chromite ore processing residue (COPR) is a waste byproduct of chromate production that contains high levels of hexavalent chromium (Cr[VI]). Although the high temperature chromite process was banned in several countries, its legacy still exists at numerous contaminated sites. For instance, New Jersey alone has over 2 million tons of waste COPR. Legacy sites are …

West China, straddling both the Tethyan and central Asian metallogenic domains, contains several tens of important copper and/or gold belts/districts, and has great potential to be copper-gold resource bases of China in the near future. Many researches have been conducted on copper and/or gold deposits in west China, but comprehensive synthesis of Cu-Au …
The gold-bearing ore was heated as a thick slurry of ore, air, water and limestone in large pressure chambers. The slurry interacted with thiosulfate and a fine, bead-like material that collects the gold. At full capacity, 13,400 tons of ore can be processed daily, with leaching taking place simultaneously in two sets of seven tanks.
Chromium mining involves both surface and underground techniques, depending on the depth and grade of the ore. Open-pit mining is common for shallow, large deposits, whereas deeper veins are mined using underground methods.
Some 81 000 kg of fine gold have been produced in Tanzania since 1935. The main producing fields are the greenstone belts; approx 73% of Tanzania's gold production came from this region.
The gold ore used in this work was obtained from Kanowna Belle gold mine (Kalgoorlie, Western Australia). ... during the grinding of pyrite ore with the chromium or ceramic media, the grinding environment was more oxidising (see Table 3) which diminished the adsorption of copper ions on pyrite surface, and thus reduced pyrite recovery ...

Chromite is an oxide mineral that an iron chromium oxide with formula: FeCr2O4. It is belonging to the spinel group. Chromite is the most important ore of chromium. Crystals are uncommon, but when found they are octahedral. Chromite is usually massive or in the form of lenses and tabular bodies, or it may be disseminated as granules.
