Alkaline leaching of zinc from low-grade oxide zinc ore using ammonium citrate as complexing agent

In this study, the effect of ammonium citrate (AC) on the leaching of low grade zinc oxide ore in the 5 m ammonia solution was studied. AC served as a leaching agent and complexing agent, respectively. The results of the leaching experiments showed that AC increased the leaching rate of zinc, which...
