Description

The author discusses the velocity of solution flow in friable ore heap leaching including the equations of leaching dynamics conditions, the relationship between the thickness of the solution on the ore surface and the velocity of solution flow, the ore leached and the derivation of ore leaching analytic equation, the division of the region leached, and the uneven velocity of solution flow. Based on this, four practical suggestions on realizing the even velocity of solution flow are made
