There is also the so-called in-situ leach process (ISL), in which the uranium ore is dissolved from the surrounding rock using oxidizing liquid directly underground and pumped upwards. Processing The extracted ore is crushed and ground in processing plants and treated with acids and alkalis to dissolve the uranium. Uranium ore concentrate (U3O8) is created; this consists of 70 to 90%...
