ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a process for effectively recovering uranium from dilute solutions, particularly alkaline carbonate leachates from an in-situ leaching process. The uranium complexes are made unstable by adjusting the pH of the leachate to about 6.5 using mineral acids or carbon dioxide. The solution is then passed over ion exchanger resin which induces percipitation of uranium. This non-exchangeable uranium on the resin is then eluted or leached with acid or carbonate solution to obtain eluate of high uranium concentration.
