Publication number: 20190275571Abstract: The present invention provides a gold mine cyanide tailing disposal method using paste technology belonging to the technical field of mining. The disposal method firstly performs a harmless decyanation treatment on a cyanide tailing slurry obtained from a mineral processing plant, and then performs a resource treatment where a cyanide tailing slurry is subjected to a thickening to obtain a higher concentration. When a backfill is needed, a paste is produced by adding a cementing material after a homogenized stirring of a two-stage horizontal agitator pumped to an underground mining site for filling by a plunger pump. The cementing material is to solidify an underflow and prevent cyanide from being filtered out. When a backfill is not needed, the paste is directly delivered to an open storage area for storing by the plunger pump.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2018Publication date: September 12, 2019Applicant: University of Science and Technology BeijingInventors: Aixiang WU, Shaoyong WANG, Lianfu ZHANG, Zhuen RUAN, Shenghua YIN, Hongjiang WANG, Yiming WANG
