Problems solved by technology

The biggest advantage of this method is that it is easy to operate, less dosage of chemicals, and lower cost. However, the loss rate of copper in the magnetic separation concentrate is relatively large, which is 10% to 15%, resulting in a low final copper recovery rate.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for flotation of copper from low-grade copper sulphide ore with high pyrrhotite content, which comprises the following steps: breaking raw ore into powder, adding lime and CD-2, and carrying out wet grinding to obtain primary ore pulp; rough concentrate and roughed tailings are obtained through multiple times of copper roughing on the primary ore pulp; copper scavenging is conducted on the roughing tailings for multiple times, copper pre-concentration is conducted on the rough concentrate, and pre-concentration concentrate and pre-concentration tailings are obtained; and performing copper fine scavenging on the pre-concentrated tailings, adding lime, CD-2 and sodium sulfide into the pre-concentrated concentrate, performing wet grinding to obtain secondary ore pulp, and performing four times of copper concentration and two times of copper fine scavenging on the secondary ore pulp to obtain copper concentrate and tailings. According to the method, pre-concentration operation is set, concentration is increased, small tailings are discharged, accumulation of pyrrhotite is avoided, the efficient inhibitor CD-2 is combined, the adverse effect of the efficient inhibitor CD-2 on copper flotation is reduced, and high-grade copper concentrate is obtained; the problem that the recovery index of copper in the low-grade high-pyrrhotite copper sulfide ore is not ideal is solved, and an effective method is provided for development and utilization of copper ore resources.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of copper recovery, in particular to a method for flotation of copper from low-grade and high-pyrrhotite-content copper sulfide ore. Background technique [0002] With the continuous utilization of mineral resources, there are fewer and fewer copper ore resources. The domestic copper ore resources are mainly sulfide copper ore; some copper sulfide ores have extremely low copper grades. In addition to pyrite, the ores also contain Contains a large amount of pyrrhotite. In the process of copper flotation recovery, the flotation separation of pyrite and chalcopyrite is relatively easy, while pyrrhotite is relatively unstable due to its own instability (there are vacancies in iron atoms in the lattice layer, resulting in pyrrhotite It has a stronger reaction ability than other sulfide ores), which has a greater impact on the slurry system, resulting in a slower floating speed of some fine-grained chalcopyrite. ...
