title = "Neutralisation and trace element removal from beverley in-situ recovery uranium mine barren lixiviant via hydrotalcite formation",
abstract = "An assessment of hydrotalcite formation to neutralize acidity and remove trace elements was undertaken using barren lixiviant from Heathgate Resources{\textquoteright} Beverley in situ recovery uranium mine in South Australia. Batchscale studies demonstrated proof of concept for neutralization of acidity using MgO + NaAlO2 with concomitant removal of a range of trace elements. The hydrotalcite formed during neutralization, hosted a range of potential contaminants including substantial uranium (~ 1% U) and rare earth elements (~ 2% REE).",
