The rhenium deposit discovered in Shaanxi is located in Songjiagou large molybdenum deposit in Luonan County, Luoshi City. Songjiagou large molybdenum deposit is located at 342 degrees northwest of Luonan County, with a linear distance of 3 1.5km from Luonan County. The deposit is located in Huanglongpu Village, Shimen Town, Luonan County. The deposit was discovered after 2000. After 10 years of geological exploration, the geological team submitted a large molybdenum deposit, which is a calcite carbonate vein type molybdenum deposit in time. At the same time, the associated metals such as lead, silver and rhenium can be comprehensively recovered, especially the recoverable rhenium metal resources reach 263 tons.
Rhenium narration
Rhenium is a chemical element with symbol Re and atomic number 75. Rhenium is a silvery heavy metal, belonging to the sixth periodic transition metal in the periodic table of elements. It is one of the rarest elements in the earth's crust, with an average content estimated at one billion, and it is also one of the elements with the highest melting point and boiling point. Rhenium is a by-product of molybdenum and copper refining process. Its chemical properties are similar to those of manganese and technetium, and its oxidation state is the lowest among the compounds. 3, up to +7.
