dc.description.abstract The purpose of this work was to explore the mechanisms and efficacy of the selective recovery of high-concentration goethite, hematite, magnetite, gypsum, and limestone from raw AMD using magnesite, soda ash and lime at a pilot-scale process, as well as determine the feasibility of the recovered minerals for larger-scale applications. The mining industry has been recently enforcing principles of sustainable mining. This has resulted in a paradigm shift towards reducing the volume of sludge generated as well as the operating cost and improving AMD treatment efficiency. In light of that, the CSIR through its long-term strategy and patented technology has developed a hybrid system for AMD treatment and valuable minerals recovery. This technology has advanced significantly and the concept has been demonstrated on a 20 kL/day plant. The current work focuses on the recovery of valuable minerals such as goethite, hematite, magnetite and gypsum at full pilot scale, hereafter advocating for a circular economy. en_US
