Abstract

Experimental results are presented on studying the ionic mobility of metals in geotechnogenous solutions from an opencast mine of the Sherlovaya Gora tin-polymetallic deposit in the presence of zeolite-containing rocks taken from the Shivyrtuy deposit (Transbaikalia). A high sorption activity of zeolite-bearing rocks is revealed concerning almost all the metal ions in solution. Concentrating the large amounts of zinc, iron, manganese ions and other elements in the solid phase could be caused replacing the ions of sodium in the structure of clinoptilolite by the mentioned ions.
