[0002] Polyhalite It is a poorly soluble sulfate mineral with a high potassium content. As an important nutrient for plant growth, it is of strategic significance and is called the "food" of food. Potassium is widely present in the earth's crust, mainly in the form of potash ores associated with sulfate minerals. The world is rich in potash resources, of which Canada has the largest potash reserves, accounting for about 50% of the world's reserves. In contrast, China's potash reserves account for only 2.2%, and its demand for potash fertilizers ranks first in the world. Therefore, the exploration and mining of potash mineral resources is particularly important. At present, the international potash mining technology is not yet mature and is limited to shallow open-pit mining. The economical and efficient mining of deep potash resources has not yet been realized. The existing technology mainly extracts soluble potash from polyhalite in two ways: one is to dissolve it with deionized water after calcination, and the other is to react with specific acids or salts to prepare potash. For example, U.S. Patents 1981125 and 1956930 use polyhalite to react with lime to prepare potassium sulfate, and Russian Patent 2276123 and Chinese Patent CN102869609A use nitric acid to dissolve polyhalite to extract potassium. However, these methods usually require deep ore to be mined and processed on the ground, which makes it difficult to achieve in-situ extraction. In recent years, domestic research has made progress. Chinese patent 200510021637.X proposes the use of The solution dissolves deep polyhalite, but the solution concentration and leaching conditions are not clear, and the ore needs to be crushed, which increases the difficulty and cost; Chinese patent 201310310354.1 uses acid and alkali solutions for leaching, but the use of strong acids and alkalis is highly corrosive to the well wall pipes, and the potassium salt dissolution rate of different solutions is not quantified, and the influence of temperature and pressure conditions on the dissolution effect is not considered; the current technology still lacks an effective in-situ solution mining method under real formation temperature and pressure conditions.
