Problems solved by technology

However, in the process of in-situ leaching, if the exploration of the geological structure is not in place, the floor structure of some mines is not tight, and the artificial floor is not well done, there will be local leakage of the leachate, resulting in a large amount of ammonium ions, Rare earth ions pollute groundwater sources and other is

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering rare earth from ionic type rare earth crude ore, which comprises the following steps of: leaching the ionic type rare earth crude ore by taking at least one of magnesium sulfate, magnesium chloride and calcium chloride, instead of most or all ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride or sodium chloride, as an ore leaching agent to obtain rare earth leachate, performing neutralization and impurity removal, and precipitating rare earth by adopting solution of magnesium hydrogen carbonate or/and calcium bicarbonate to obtain a rare earth carbonate product. In the method, an ammonium bicarbonate precipitator and most or all ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride and sodium chloride serving as ore leaching agents are eliminated, pollution of ammonia nitrogen wastewater and high-salinity sodium salt wastewater on environment and underground water is greatly reduced or eliminated, and the method is an environment-friendly ionic type rare earth ore mining process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recovering rare earth from ionic rare earth raw ore, which belongs to the industry of mining, dressing and smelting of nonferrous metals. Background technique [0002] Ionic rare earth minerals are rare earth minerals that exist in an ionic state. Most of the rare earth elements in rare earth minerals exist in the state of cations and are adsorbed on some mineral carriers. For example, the unique ion adsorption rare earth minerals in southern my country , most of its rare earth ions are mainly adsorbed on aluminosilicate minerals such as kaolinite and muscovite or fluorocarbonate minerals. The rare earth content of this mineral is generally very low, but the proportion of medium and heavy rare earth is high, so it is a kind of precious rare earth resource. [0003] At present, electrolytic solutions containing ammonium ions or sodium ions are used as leaching agents in industry to leach ionic rare minerals. Ammoniu...
