Prank Lamb in Lamb and Sargent (12) states that, except for the fact that bastnasite contains no thorium which paid a large part of processing monazite in 1954, it would probably have been the major source of
Get PriceSo potentially the uranium ore at the Rossing mine could produce an EROEI of 50,000. This is at a uranium concentration of 300 PPM. Now the thorium at Lemhi Pass is of a purity of between 25% to 63% of the ore. In other words a concentration many orders of magnitude greater than the uranium concentration of Rossing ore.
Get PriceOre processing residues or tailings contain quantities of uranium, thorium, tantalum, niobium, and scandium. It is presently typically not feasible to recover concentrated quantities of these materials and the radioactive component presents a disposal problem.

Normally such ore materials are the tailings that exist after the ore body has been processed to extract certain mineral content such as uranium, thorium, tantalum. zirconium, etc. The decay chain progeny may or may not be in equilibrium with their respective parent radionuclides in these ore tailings depending on their processing history.
Get PriceRecipes in Mining are listed under Smelting, a subskill which works exactly like any other crafting-profession. Although working like a separate profession, Smelting is part of Mining, and is automatically learned upon obtaining Mining. It's the ability which allows a player to process and refine raw ores into useful bars. Smelting is also often used to combine smelted metals into alloys.
