The results showed that the hydrogeochemical conditions (pH and Eh) have little effect on the leaching of thorium in the process of column leaching. Although the pH value changed from 1.73 to 1.36 following time, or the Eh value from 169mV to 592mV, but the last amount of Th leaching is maintain at 2.2 mg / L - 2.5 mg / L. Meanwhile, the experiment results also indicated that the leaching rate of Th reached 14.1%, while the leaching rate of uranium was 80.03%. The main reason of the results is that U and Th possess different chemical properties. The Th (+4 valence) is difficult to be dissolved, migrating and transform because of its stability. However, the U has multiple valence states, such as the +6 valence is unusual dynamic and easy to migrating and transform in the environment.
