Abstract

The invention discloses a beneficiation method for recycling zinc from lead-floating tailings. The beneficiation method is characterized in that a floating method of distributed activated zinc at a zinc concentration stage is adopted, an activating agent copper sulfate is supplemented during zinc concentration operation for distributed activated zinc floating, dosage of a collecting agent is reduced, environmental pollution is reduced, beneficiation cost is reduced, a zinc concentration off-slot phenomenon is avoided, pulp potential is regulated according to electrochemical behaviors of different minerals, and the grade and the relatively high recovery rate of zinc concentrate are guaranteed. Compared with the prior art, the beneficiation method has the advantages that: firstly, distributed activated zinc concentration operation is creatively disclosed, and electrochemical behaviors of different minerals are controlled, so that zinc blende or marmatite is efficiently separated from pyrrhotite; and copper sulfate is supplemented during zinc concentration operation for pyrrhotite with strong reducibility, so that pulp is guaranteed to have enough copper irons, and therefore, the floating recovery rate of zinc concentrate is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mineral flotation, in particular to a beneficiation method for recovering zinc from lead flotation tailings. Background technique [0002] pyrrhotite (Fe 1-x S) is a sulfur compound of iron that can coexist with a variety of minerals. It has three homogeneous polymorphic variants: monoclinic, hexagonal, and orthorhombic. The common ones are monoclinic and hexagonal pyrrhotite, and they have different crystal systems. The magnetism and buoyancy of pyrrhotite are quite different. In my country's lead-zinc sulfide ore resources, the distribution characteristics of useful minerals are complex, the separation effect of sphalerite and pyrrhotite is poor, and the separation indicators of most mines are not ideal. Especially for pyrrhotite with strong reducing properties, high content and complex structure, the zinc concentration operation is easy to "fall out of the tank". The traditional method is to add a co...
