Problems solved by technology

Although the high-temperature calcination link is reduced, the lepidolite concentrate must be ground to 70% and pass 200 mesh, and the grinding cost is relatively high; and in order to ensure that the defluorination reaches more than 95%, it must be kept for 20-30 hours and the aging time is long Lead to high energy consumption and low equipment productivity

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of extracting lithium from ores, and specifically discloses a lepidolite heap leaching method, comprising the following steps: ① grinding ore; ② mixing acid; ③ mixing water and fluorosilicic acid; ④ aging; Heap leaching; ⑦ Collect leachate. The method of the invention does not need high-temperature calcination for defluorination, low-temperature calcination, and pressure leaching, reduces equipment investment, has low energy consumption, little environmental pollution, and is simple and efficient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium extraction from ores, and in particular relates to a lepidolite heap leaching method. Background technique [0002] Due to the development of electric vehicles, the demand for lithium batteries in the global market continues to rise, which has led to a rapid increase in the demand for lithium carbonate. How to develop and utilize various lithium resources to prepare lithium carbonate and meet the market demand for lithium carbonate is an urgent task before us. [0003] Lithium exists in nature in two forms: solid mineral resources and liquid deposit resources. Solid mineral resources are mainly divided into spodumene minerals and lepidolite minerals. China's spodumene mineral resources are relatively scarce, but lepidolite is very rich. The lepidolite reserves in Yichun, Jiangxi Province are huge, and the lithium reserves are 2.578 million tons in terms of lithium oxide. Therefore, extracting lit...
