Optimum conditions were found as follows: H SO concentration 90 g/L, 2 4 liquid/solid ratio 6: 1, leaching temperature 60 °C and leaching time 1.0 h. Under these conditions, 95.8% cadmium was recovered. FeAsO and Fe(OH) precipitates with FeCl are found to be highly effective to obtain a high degree of separation of heavy metals 4 3 3 and the oxyanions of arsenic from the leachate. The overall separation of arsenic and other heavy metals and precipitate settling rates are optimum at n(Fe)/n(As) ratio of 3:1 and pH 6. The removal rates of Fe, Pb and Cu from the solution were greater than 98.9%, and As removal rate was 99.6%. A solvent extraction with P204 was used for the separation of zinc and cadmium. Optimum conditions are obtained as follows: 20% P204 (volume fraction) diluted with kerosene at room temperature, pH 3.0, and varying organic/aqueous (O/A) phase ratio 1:1. The extraction rate of zinc is 99.2% under these conditions. Spherical cadmium particles showing ne
