Abstract
This investigation was conducted to obtain data on optimum conditions for
chloridizing metal sulfides . Salt- roasting galena at 450° C for 8 hours
chloridized 75 percent of the lead ; in an equal time of treatment at 750° C ,
the process chloridized 42 percent of the zinc in sphalerite . Hydrogen
chloride at 500° C completely chloridized galena in 15 minutes , and at 600° C
converted all of the zinc in sphalerite to the chloride in 4 hours .
