leach feed grade

English to French Tech/Engineering Mining & Minerals / Gems
As the uranium mineralization is 'near surface', an 'open cut' operation is used to mine the ore which is then crushed and upgraded through a scrubbing and classification system to Paladin, to give a leach feed grade of almost double that of the mined ore

teneur avant lixiviation

The "leach feed" is the input of the leaching process: dissolution of the processed ore by a liquid.

The grade is the content of this ore in usable metal, the purpose of the physical operations before the leaching is to increase this content, apparently by a factor of 2 compared to the ore that has been mined.
