The invention provides a novel method for preparing battery grade 
lithium carbonate by using 
tantalum niobium tailings lithium mica. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps of: crushing 
lithium mica powder until 
granularity is 100 to 200 meshes, adding the crushed lithium 
mica powder and 30 to 70 percent 
sulfuric acid solution in a 
solid and liquid 
mass ratio of 1:(2-8) into a reaction device, reacting at the temperature of between 60 and 200 DEG C for 3 to 10 hours to obtain the 
sulfuric acid solution which contains Li<+>, and separating to remove 
fluorine-containing solution; performing filtering separation on the 
sulfuric acid solution which contains the Li<+>, and fully washing the filter residue with water to remove the filter residue and obtain filtrate which serves as 
mother liquor 1; changing the temperature of the 
mother liquor to be between 10 and 100 DEG C with stirring, separating solids, namely 
rubidium, 
caesium and 
alum, performing filtering separation, washing the filter residue, and recovering the filtrate as 
mother liquor 2; adding 
calcium hydroxide into the mother liquor 2, and controlling the pH value of the solution to between 2 and 7 to obtain 
solid and liquid 
mixed solution of 
neutralization reaction; performing filtering separation on the 
solid and liquid 
mixed solution, washing and filtering the filter residue, and recovering the filtrate as mother liquor 3; performing 
evaporation concentration on the mother liquor 3, controlling the concentration of the Li<+> in the solution to be between 40 and 65g / l, and filtering to obtain the filtrate serving as mother liquor 4; and blowing 
carbon dioxide into the mother liquor 4 at the temperature of between 95 and 105 DEG C under 2 atmospheres and performing lithium-sinking reaction for 40 to 100 minutes, filtering and mechanically separating to obtain 
lithium carbonate, washing with water, and 
drying to obtain the battery grade 
lithium carbonate product.
