Sandstone-type deposits have emerged as the primary uranium deposits being mined in China, utilizing in-situ leaching technology. However, the leaching of uranium resources within sandstone formations faces significant constraints due to their extremely low permeability, accounting for approximately seventy percent of the total. This paper aims to present recent advancements in the field in enhancing seepage-leaching mass-transfer properties in in-situ leaching of uranium from low-permeability sandstone. We will provide an overview of the main ...
