Nickel mineralisation in the regolith, in the upper saprolite typically exists as goethite, hematite, limonite and is often associated with polydymite and violarite, nickel sulfides which are of supergene association.
32.
Frequently, the removal of the saprolite by erosion and exposure of corestones as freestanding residual boulders, tors, or other landforms occurs many thousands of years later and during vastly different climatic conditions.
33.
The DNi process has the major advantage of being able to treat both limonite and saprolite lateritic ores and is estimated to have less than half the capital and operating costs of HPAL or FerroNickel processes.
34.
These in turn are currently undergoing erosion by a combination of aeolian and fluvial processes, forming extensive sand dune systems, deep and prolonged development of laterite and saprolite profiles, and development of playa lakes, salt lakes and ephemeral drainage.
35.
"' Spheroidal weathering "'is a form of chemical weathering that affects jointed bedrock and results in the formation of concentric or spherical layers of highly decayed rock within weathered bedrock that is known as " saprolite ."
36.
This causes chemical reactions within the saprolite to leech certain minerals from the rock and if the hydraulic conductivity of that rock is high enough, the water can carry those minerals away, which can cause the infrastructure of that rock to collapse and erode.
37.
Often called " weathered granite ", saprolite is the result of weathering processes that include : hydrolysis, chelation from organic compounds, hydration ( the solution of minerals in water with resulting cation and anion pairs ) and physical processes that include freezing and thawing.
38.
Sulfides are some of the most unstable minerals in humid, oxidizing environments; many cadmium, cobalt, copper, molybdenum, nickel and zinc sulfides are easily leached to deep in the profile . reprecipitate with secondary iron-manganese oxides in the mid-to lower saprolite.
39.
Saprolites form in the lower zones of soil horizons In lateritic regoliths & ndash; regoliths are the loose layer of rocks that rest on the bedrock & ndash; saprolite may be overlain by upper horizons of residual laterite; most of the original profile is preserved by residual soils or transported overburden.
