Problems solved by technology

[0002] Tailings are discarded products after mineral processing. Since the minerals that are easy to be selected have been recovered, the rest are minerals with poor selectivity. Therefore, the content of valuable metals in tailings is not only low, but also difficult to obtain. In addition, after stacking, the tailings are not only bonded into agglomerates, but also the metal minerals are seriously oxidized, and the particle size is fine and mixed with impurities, making it more and more difficult for valuable metals to be recycled, except for a small part used in tunnels. Backfilling and brick paving or other uses, most of them are piled up in the mining area for many years
This will not only cause a waste of resources, but also pollute the environment and cause a burden to the environment.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for refining valuable metal minerals in tailings. The method comprises the following operating steps: with an aqueous solution of sodium hexametaphosphate as a dispersant, dispersing the tailings, grading fine granules of the tailings according to the size of granularity, carrying out gravity separation on the graded tailings, and refining valuable metals obtained after gravity separation. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the tailings are processed by adopting simple process flows, the tailing resources are sufficiently utilized, multiple valuable metal minerals in the tailings are enriched, and thus the beneficiation feed grade of the flows is improved and relatively high concentrate grade and recycling rate can be obtained; meanwhile, the flow processing capability is also improved and the equipment load is alleviated. According to the method, fewer dispersant is used, the process flows are simple and easy to operate, the energy consumption is reduced, and thus the processing cost of the tailings is reduced and the economic benefit for site selection is increased.
