Skorpion Zinc operates a solvent extraction/electrowinning zinc plant producing over 150 000 t/a of special high grade (SHG) zinc ( 99.995% Zn). In the current flow sheet copper and cadmium are cemented from the neutral leach solution using zinc powder, to prevent galvanic corrosion of plant equipment and build-up of copper in plant solutions.

Oct 06, 2015 The nature and the origin of zinc clays are poorly understood. With the example of the Bou Arhous Zn-Pb ore deposit in the Moroccan High Atlas, this study presents new data for the mineralogical and chemical characterization of barren and zinc clays associated with non-sulfide zinc ores. In the field, white to ocher granular clays are associated with willemite (Zn2SiO4), while red …

Dec 03, 2010 The Witputs section of the Gariep Belt (S Namibia) comprises a sequence of clastic and chemical sediments, which have been interpreted as representative of a Late Neoproterozoic global or near-global ice age event, and recent biostratigraphic work in the upper rocks of the Witputs suggest a Late Ediacaran age. To further characterise this sequence and provide additional age constraints, a ...

This study re-evaluates the characteristics of Cu-Pb-Ag and Fe-Mn ore mineralization of the Kombat Mine and Gross Otavi Mine based on field geology, fluid inclusions, petrology, mineralogy, and geochemistry. This is to determine the genetic relationship between Fe-Mn and Cu-Pb-Ag mineralization. The study has established that the Cu-Pb-Ag ore at the Kombat Mine can be classified as a variant ...
