The extraction of nickel and cobalt from a limonitic laterite sample, derived from a mine area in the Greek island of Euboea, was studied via an acid agitation leach process with nitric acid as the leaching agent, to determine the optimal conditions at which the highest possible extractions of nickel and cobalt were obtained in the pregnant solution. Two series of …

Cobalt ore. The ores are treated by a sulfatizing roast in a fluidized bed furnace to convert copper and cobalt sulfides into soluble sulfates and iron into insoluble hematite.The calcine is subsequently leached with sulfuric acid from the spent copper recovery electrolyte.Oxide concentrates are introduced at this leaching step to maintain the acid balance in the circuit.

Life cycle assessment is a valuable tool that is used to conduct the environmental impact assessment of different metal extraction processes. Life cycle assessment assesses impacts on the environment, human health, land, water, and soil during mining and other similar processes, as visible in some previous studies (Mahmud, Huda, Farjana, & Lang, 2018a, 2018b).
