Abstract

The invention provides a method for separating scandium and uranium from scandium-containing uranium ore. The method comprises: crushing and grinding raw ore with the particle size of-2 mm until the number of -200 meshes accounts for 65%-70%; adding the ground particles into a strong magnetic separator for magnetic separation to obtain scandium-containing concentrate and uranium-containing tailings, and collecting the scandium-containing concentrate; leaching the uranium-containing tailings through an acid solution to obtain a uranium-rich acid solution and tailings, and separating the uranium-containing acid solution from the tailings; and enriching scandium through a physical method, then collecting uranium through hydrometallurgy, and achieving separation-smelting combination . The method has the advantages of being easy to operate, high in separation precision and high in enrichment ratio.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgy, in particular to a method for separating scandium and uranium from scandium-containing uranium ore. Background technique [0002] The global scandium reserves are about 2 million tons, and China accounts for 27.5%, ranking first in the world. There are more than 800 kinds of scandium-containing minerals known. The mineral composition is complex, the scandium content is low, and it is distributed in other minerals in the form of isomorphism or adsorption state. The process of enrichment, separation and extraction of high-purity scandium is quite complicated . Scandium and its compounds have a variety of excellent properties, and are widely used in national defense, electric light source, aerospace, chemical industry, metallurgy and other fields. With the consumption of scandium increasing year by year, it is very important to seek more scandium-containing materials and effectively extract and ...
