Proposed PhD project: Development of new methodologies for measuring uranium minerals in the ore bearing uranium complex
Chemistry involved in extracting uranium from uranium ore bearing uranium bearing ore complex as containing a number of different uranium minerals in addition to various other minerals / compounds found in the ore body. In order to gain a better understanding of the chemical extraction of uranium from uranium bearing ore detailed information about the type and amount of uranium minerals are present in the ore feed is required. Such information is however difficult to obtain using current techniques for uranium minerals usually found in ore in very low concentrations as a very fine grain. Besides the current techniques are capable of providing such information is laborious and expensive and can not be used to analyze a large number of samples in a short period of time.
The main objective of this research project is to investigate the development of new methodology for determining / characteristics of the uranium minerals are found in uranium ore bearing. This will involve research using various techniques of instruments including the new microprobe technique recently developed at CSIRO.
Successful applicants will be based on the campus of the City School of Applied Sciences and also will be asked to conduct research at CSIRO laboratories in Clayton.
Value: $ 27,000 per year (for 3 years).
Requirements: Open to both local and international students.
How to apply: Contact Professor Suresh Bhargava.
Opening date: Mid 2011
Closing date: March 2012
