The decomposition of pyrite and other sulphide minerals by sulphur chloride

The reactions of pyrite (FeS₂) and other sulphide minerals with liquid sulphur chloride (S₂Cl₂) have been investigated in an attempt to develop a process for the extraction of metals such as Fe, Pb, Cu, Mo, etc. from sulphide minerals using S₂Cl₂ (with or without dissolved sulphur) as both the solve...
