铀矿加工研究在铀矿床地质经济评价中的能动作用

本文首先对矿床地质经济评价的各种方法的发展进行了简单的评述,指出矿石加工成本在矿床地质经济评价中占有重要的地位。同时指出影响矿石加工成本的因素不仅包括自然条件、经济的及社会的因素,也包括技术的因素。本文评述了国内外降低加工成本及扩大可利用的铀资源范围所进行的新技术、新材料、新设备的研究动态及具效果。最后本文提出:(1)在进行铀矿床地质经济评价时,要注意矿石加工研究的新成果;(2)铀矿床地质经济评价是铀矿物原料研究的一部分;(3)应加强铀矿物原料研究,充分发挥铀矿石加工研究在铀矿床地质经济评价中的能动作用;(4)随着铀矿石加工研究的进展,应对一个矿床在各阶段不断地进行地质经济评价。

THE ACTIVE ROLE OF STUDY OF URANIUM ORE PROCESSING IN THE ECONOMICO-GEOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF URANIUM ORE DEPOSITS

In this paper the different me hods for e onomiro geological evaluation of mineral deposit are revewed. It is shown that the cost of ore processimg plays an important role in the evaluation, and that the factors influencing the evaluation include the natural and social conditions as well as the technical factors. It is observed that the technical development of uranium ore processing can lower the co t of uranium ore processing, making the utilization of lower grade ore and unconventional uranium resources profitable. In order to lower the cost of uranium ore processing to meet the requirements of developing nuclear industry, many new methods, new techniques, new materials and new equipment for uranium ore pro essing hav e been studied in different countries. In this paper the tendency and results of these studies are briefly reviewed. At last, the auther suggests;( 1 ) to pay full attention to the new results of u.anium ore processing in the economico-geological evaluation ( 2 ) to consider the economico-geological evaluation as one part of the study of uranium raw mate/ials;( 3 ) to improve the study of uianium raw material to develop the active role of the study of uranium ore processing in the evaluation; ( 4 ) to make the economico-geological evaluation at different stages of deposit mining.
