During the biological leaching process, leaching microorganisms are relatively sensitive to environmental factors such as the initial pH and ore-pulp ratio. Taking a sandstone type uranium deposit in Inner Mongolia as the research object, by analyzing the pH, REDOX potential (Eh), iron ion concentration and uranium leaching rate of the leaching solution, the influence of the initial pH and ore-pulp ratio on the uranium leaching rate was discussed. The results show that when the initial pH is 1.4 and the ore-pulp ratio is 10%, the biological leaching effect of uranium is the best, and the uranium leaching rates reach 95.63% and 94.22%, respectively. An appropriate initial pH can reduce the formation of iron precipitation and maintain the activity of mixed Acidithiobacillus ferrous oxide (At.f) and Thiobacillus thiooxidans (T.t). The optimized ore-pulp ratio can enhance the mass transfer efficiency and promote leaching. The research can provide an important basis for optimizing the bioleaching process of sandstone-type uranium ores, and the research results can offer theoretical basis for the enhanced bioleaching of sandstone-type uranium ores in Inner Mongolia region.
