Mineralogy of Tailings Dump around Selebi Phikwe Nickel-Copper Plant, Botswana

Mineralogy of Tailings Dump around Selebi Phikwe Nickel-Copper Plant, Botswana

This study aimed at mineralogically characterizing the tailings dump emanating from the mining and smelting of nickel-copper (Ni-Cu) at Selebi Phikwe, Botswana, Southern Africa. Samples of tailings dump around the Selebi Phikwe Ni-Cu plant were studied using petrographic microscopy and X-ray Powder...
