Conclusions

  1. 1.

    A mathematical model is presented for mass-transfer processes for the quantitative description of leaching in coarse-grained ores. An algorithm and program for computer solution were worked out for the corresponding nonlinear system of equations.

  2. 2.

    The effect of physical and chemical constants in the model was studied, using numerical computer experiments, on the characteristics of productivity in leaching an oxidized ore. For monomineralic ores in dissolved disseminates, the model permits technological leaching parameters to be calculated which correspond to a designated scheme for chemical solution.
