The effect of a new pretreatment method i.e. mechanical activation on the solid-state and dissolution properties of arsenopyrite was studied.In a planetary ball mill,arsenopyrite was mechanically activated for 1 h at different grinding speeds.The analysis of particle size and specific surface area indicated that the particle size of arsenopyrite decreased rapidly at first and then increased slightly with increase of milling speed.The optimum particle distribution,minimum particle size value of 2.36 μm and maximum specific surface area of 2.667 m2/g can be observed at milling speed of 300 r/min.The morphology of arsenopyrite at different milling speeds was observed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and it was found that the surface of arsenopyrite formed micro-nano particles and amorphization degree significantly increased with the increase of milling speed.XRD(X-ray diffraction)analysis results showed that with the increase of milling speed,no phase transformation occured,but the amorphization degree of arsenopyrite increased to 72%, lattice distortion increased from 0.014% to 0.097%,and crystallite size decreased from 75.6 nm to 56.0 nm.The characteristic peaks of 217.2 cm-1and 273.7 cm-1of arsenopyrite were analyzed by Raman spectroscopy.It was found that the vibration of the characteristic peak located at 273.7 cm-1was more sensitive to the mechanical stress.Finally,the leaching tests of arsenopyrite were carried out by Fe2(SO4)3solution.The results showed that contrasted with unactivated arsenopyrite,total arsenic extraction from arsenopyrite has doubled to nearly 48.74% under the optimum milling speed of 300 r/min.
