The invention provides a method for obtaining 
sponge iron by treating high-iron low-
tin ore by a sulfurizing volatilization direct-reduction process. The method comprises the steps of: respectively 
drying and 
grinding the high-iron low-
tin raw ore, a sulfurizing agent and a 
reducing agent; adding the sulfurizing agent and the 
reducing agent in the raw ore and evenly mixing; putting the mixture obtained from the former step at the temperature of 1000-1300 DEG C simultaneously introducing 
inert gas with a flow rate of 0.2-1L / min, and preserving the temperature for 20-80minutes for carrying out sulfurizing volatilization treatment; and then introducing 
oxide gas with a flow rate of 0.2-1L / min and preserving the temperature for 20-80minutes for direct reduction; conventionally cooling high temperature 
flue gas generated in reaction, carrying out dust collection treatment for recovering 
tin resources in the high temperature 
flue gas, and cooling the remaining materials, thus obtaining the 
sponge iron. The high-iron low-tin ore is treated by utilizing the easy sulfurizing-volatilization property of tin, the content of 
tin can be reduced, tin is recovered and the comprehensive 
recovery rate of the tin resource is improved. Simultaneously, a 
coal-based 
direct reaction is carried out for producing the high-grade 
sponge iron, the technical flow is shortened and the comprehensive 
utilization rate of an iron resource is improved.
