Abstract

Based on mineralogy, physical and chemical analyses, character of gold-processing tailings from Pongkor showed relatively complex condition. Gold particles were normally included by either sulfide (pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena, arsenopyrite, sphalerite etc.) or silicate minerals (mainly quartz). The inclusion structure performed single, double or multiple forms. Single inclusion meant that gold particle(s) was encased by one mineral phase while double and multi inclusions implied that the gold was sheathed by two or more phases. Gold was distributed along the micro-cracks of either similar or different phase. Chemical analyses showed that Pongkor tailings were characterized by several elements that might be ineffective for gold leaching by cyanide. Preg-robbing solution might be occurred.

Abstract

Tapin kaolin cannot directly be utilized as raw material for white ware ceramics due to its high Fe2O3 content. It needs upgrading its quality in terms of fulfilling the specification of white ware ceramics. Such the material requires a series of process including washing, wet sieving in magnetic ferro-filter equipment and then dissolv- ing by H2SO4 10%. Based on several parameters such as Al2O3, SiO2 and Fe2O3 contents, 2-µm particle size density, whiteness and plasticity; Tapin kaolin quality develops significantly. XRD analysis shows that the mate- rial does not have maghemite anymore. Quartz is relatively low and mafic minerals are unavailable. Referring to such quality, Tapin kaolin can be used for Parian porcelain.

Abstract

The objective of this study is characterizing the zircon sand from Popay of Nanga Pinoh District, West Kalimantan as well as its performance when separated using physical method, i.e., tabling and magnetic separator in terms of obtaining zircon concentrate for making zircon flour. The satisfied requirement of zircon flour will be used for ceramics, refractory and foundry raw materials. Tabling followed by magnetic separator of Popay zircon sand increase zircon content from 43.54 to 65.50%. The content increases to 66.11% when reversing the process, namely started with magnetic separator and then tabling. Mineralogical analysis using optical microscope detected six minerals available within zircon sands. Those are zircon, ilmenite, magnetite, hematite, rutile and quartz while XRD analysis only identified five minerals. Hematite was not distinguished within Popay samples. Chemical analysis of the samples shows that the ZrO2 content within zircon flour is bigger than 65%. Such a figure is categorized as premium class for zircon flour to be used for refractory, ceramics and foundry.

Abstract

Natural kieserite is usually used for the production of epsom salt and fertilizer. Normally, the mineral is mined from geologic marine deposits and provides a soluble source of both Mg and S for plant nutrition. However, natural kieserite cannot be found in Indonesia. The fact that this country retains a lot of dolomite deposits and such a material can be processed into synthetic kieserite by sulphatization process seems promising for fertilizer industry in Indonesia. Varying the sulfuric acid concentration between 2 and 5 N and its volume from29.50 to 94.80 ml produces the MgO in MgSO4 filtrate below the specification as stated in Indonesian National Standard (14 – 19%) though its sulfur content has satisfied the requirements. It is assumed that some MgO’s (around 1.93 – 7.12%) are still available in CaSO4 deposit. To get the optimum results, an appropriate calcula- tion is required when adding sulfuric acid to the process and the solution should be in neutral condition prior to separating MgSO4 – CaSO4 as well.

Abstract

Currently, gold processing unit at Pongkor mine processes cyanide-containing waste at the end pipe or known as final process. Due to the increase of environmental awareness from the community, such a process needs to be re-evaluated. This relates to tight regulation regarding safe waste prior to releasing to the nature. Conflicts will arouse when population at surrounding area increases fast. To anticipate such conflicts, the gold processing unit of Pongkor mine proposes a scenario dealing with waste processing improvement from the end pipe process to the whole one. It includes reagent use optimization and waste minimization including its recycle. In situ cyanide detoxification is one of waste minimization processes conducted at Pongkor mine. In terms of comparing which one of the methods is the best in reducing cyanide within wastes, a series of cyanide reduction tests employed Inco’s and Degussa methods at a laboratory scale. To reduce high cyanide concentration of the wastes, the used reagents in Inco’s method include Na2 S2O5, CuSO4.5H2O and pressured by the air while Degussa method applied H2O2 and CuSO4.5H2O. The results from this experiment suggest that Inco’s technology is able to detoxify cyanidation effluents better than that of Degussa technology.
