Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of mineral exploration, and specifically relates to a device and method for geo-electric extraction under water layer coverage.


BACKGROUND

Deep concealed mineral exploration is the main task of mineral exploration in the world, and penetrating exploration is an important development direction of current mineral exploration methods. Geo-electric extraction is a method by extracting trace elements in soil through electric field excitation, where the device used includes two parts: a power supply and an extraction electrode.


However, the prior art has the following problems:


1) The prior art is not suitable for special topography, such as paddy fields, swamps, rivers and other places with water coverage. In the case of obvious accumulation of water on the surface, the water will bring the trace elements in the topsoil layer shown in FIG. 12 into the extraction electrode, which will seriously affect the extraction results. The trace elements extracted by using the geo-electric extraction technology mainly come from deep underground. These trace elements are accumulated over a long period of time (sometimes up to millions of years) under geological action, so their content is very low (below ppm level). The composition and content of trace elements in the topsoil layer are quite different from those in the elurium, and they are susceptible to human and other factors, especially heavy metal contamination, thereby leading to a significant impact on the extraction results. Therefore, if there is significant accumulation of water on the surface, it is impossible to carry out extraction without changing the extraction location.


2) The prior art has the problem of loss of the extraction liquid. The extraction liquid is poured into the open space around the extraction electrode in the soil, and it will spread around over time. It has been found that there is an unobvious loss of the extraction liquid within 24 hour, and a significant loss of the extraction liquid over 24 hour, especially in dry, sandy soil. The loss of the extraction liquid will affect the conductivity of the soil and increase the resistivity between the two extraction electrodes, thereby affecting the extraction effect.


3) The existing operation procedure destroys the original structure of the soil, and there is potential human impact. Since a 50 cm deep pit is dug to bury the extraction electrode, the soil around the extraction electrode is actually disturbed, and it is the result of artificial backfilling. This destroys the original soil structure, increases the porosity, and changes the soil conductivity, resulting in a human impact on the extraction result.

The present disclosure has the following beneficial effects:

    • 1. The present disclosure ensures the water-proof effect through three measures, namely providing the auxiliary tubes, providing the outer casings and increasing the excavation depth. As described in the operation steps, first, the auxiliary tube is provided to initially isolate water and sludge. Second, the outer casing is provided to initially waterproof, that is, to prevent most of the water from entering the outer casing. The outer casing can reach a large depth, and the water absorption of the soil ensures that the upper water and sludge cannot infiltrate quickly (at least not in a 24-hour extraction time). Third, a small pit is dug at the bottom to further avoid accidental water seepage. If the outer casing is loose, there may be a small amount of water seepage along the gap between the outer casing and the soil. To this end, the third measure is devised. In addition, in order to achieve the purpose of water insulation, waterproof and water-absorbing substances may also be filled between the outer casing and the main tube, for example, plastic sheeting is added first, and then soil is filled.
    • 2. The present disclosure accomplishes electrode placement at a depth of 1-2 m. In the prior art, the electrode is generally buried at a depth of about 50 cm. Under special circumstances, the depth of the acceptable soil layer often reaches 1-2 m, or even more. The present disclosure can complete the burial work at a depth of 1-2 m, or even 3-4 m, and only needs to increase the length of the outer casing and the main tube.
    • 3. The present disclosure improves the portability, operability and safety of the device through the encapsulated extraction electrodes. The encapsulated extraction electrode integrates the extraction liquid and the conventional electrode. It can be brought to the field after being made indoors, which is convenient to carry and reduces the time and workload of field operation.
    • 4. The present disclosure only needs to dig a small pit (a small hole of 12 cm). Under the same burial depth, in the prior art, a large pit of 50 cm is needed, which requires 1-2 people to dig, making the prior art time-consuming and labor-intensive.


In addition, under the same conditions, the present disclosure simplifies the operation steps and reduces the influence of human operation. In the prior art, the electrode burying operation includes 6 steps, including digging the pit, burying the electrode, filling soil, feeding the extraction liquid, compacting the soil and connecting the power supply. The present disclosure only requires 3 steps, including digging the pit, burying the electrode and connecting the power supply. The method of the present disclosure is simple to operate, and reduces the disturbance to the soil and the non-uniformity of the artificial feeding of the extraction liquid. Meanwhile, the extraction liquid is concentrated inside the conventional electrode and diffuses from the inside to the outside, which ensures the energization effect and the extraction effect.

    • 5. In the present disclosure, to feed the extraction liquid, it is only necessary to connect the hoses to the interface of the storage container and open the valve. This greatly reduces the opportunity for the operator to come into contact with acid and improves operational safety.
