Process for recovering zinnwaldite from Ta Nb tailings

Abstract

The invention discloses a process for recovering zinnwaldite from Ta Nb tailings. The process aims to solve the problems that for sorting for recovering zinnwaldite from Ta Nb tailings, a large amountof agent is needed by a traditional floatation process at present, so that environmental pollution and equipment corrosion are easily caused, the recovery effect is not good, so that certain resourceloss can be caused, and the process is complex, so that production cost is high. The process specifically includes the steps of performing centrifugal re-sorting on the Ta Nb tailings to remove a small proportion of minerals in the Ta Nb tailings, performing pre-enrichment on the zinnwaldite to obtain a gravity concentrate, and performing superconducting magnetic separation on the gravity concentrate through a superconducting magnetic separation machine to obtain a zinnwaldite concentrate. By means of the process, the re-sorting and superconducting magnetic separation process is adopted innovatively, and the sorting precision and efficiency are greatly improved; sorting indexes are good and stable, and production cost is reduced; and meanwhile no agent needs to be added, energy conservation and environmental protection are realized in the technological process, and the efficient recycling of the zinnwaldite resource is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mineral separation, in particular to a process for recovering iron lepidolite from tantalum and niobium tailings. Background technique [0002] Tantalum-niobium ore refers to the general term for minerals containing tantalum and niobium. There are more than 100 kinds of them. The main ores that can be mined are tantalite, niobite and pyrochlore. Tantalum-niobium ore mining and sorting through a certain process will produce tantalum-niobium tailings, and tantalum-niobium tailings generally contain non-metallic minerals such as iron lepidolite and feldspar. Therefore, rational use of the tailings resources can not only reduce the pressure on the tailings inventory, but also produce good economic and environmental benefits. [0003] However, at present, the recovery and separation of tantalum and niobium tailings is mainly based on traditional flotation. Due to the large amount of chemicals required by the ...
