الوصف: In the process of acid in situ leaching of sandstone uranium ore, pyrite, which is a common associated mineral of pitchblende, would inevitably participate in the reaction. Therefore, it is important to study the influence of pyrite on the leaching kinetics of pitchblende. In this study, we compared the difference leaching rates of pitchblende in the systems of sulfuric acid–hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid–hydrogen peroxide–pyrite and sulfuric acid–pyrite and studied the influence of temperature and pyrite quantity on the leaching rate of pitchblende. The results show that the leaching process of pitchblende follows the shrinking particle model controlled by a chemical reaction, and the apparent activation energy Ea of the leaching reaction is (3.74 ± 0.40) × 10 kJ/mol. Pyrite itself cannot promote the dissolution of pitchblende; however, it can promote the leaching of pitchblende in the presence of an oxidizer. Increasing the quantity of pyrite in a certain range can increase the leaching rate of pitchblende, and the reaction order of pyrite is 0.36.
