Abstract

The invention relates to an indium extraction method by acid dipping and solvent extraction under high pressure from zine sulfide clean ore with high component of indium and iron. After jevigating process of zine sulfide clean ore with high component of indium and iron, pasting the powder with zinc electrodeposition discard solution, sending the mixture to pressure pan to do acid dipping directly, in which zinc leaching ratio approaches to 99% or higher while indium leaching ratio approaches to 96% or higher, extracting more than 95% of indium in leachate by solvent, so recovery ratio of sponge indium from zine clean ore approaches to 85% or more, processing leachate, from which indium is extracted, to produce sine by wet zinc smelting technology such as deironing, extraction in neutral condition, solution purification, electrodeposition and fusion casting. This invention has the properties of simplifying process, high recovery ratio of indium and zine and high-activity processing of complex zinc clean ore with high component of indium.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a method for smelting high-indium-zinc concentrates, and more specifically relates to a method for extracting indium from high-indium and high-iron zinc sulfide concentrates. Background technique [0002] High indium and high iron zinc sulfide concentrate refers to the general term for a type of zinc sulfide concentrate that contains more than 15% iron, less than 48% zinc, and is associated with relatively high scattered metal indium, and cannot remove iron during the beneficiation process. . [0003] For the treatment of materials such as "high indium and high iron zinc sulfide concentrate", currently "boiling roasting - high temperature and high acid leaching - jarosite iron removal" or "boiling roasting - high temperature and high acid leaching - goethite removal Iron” process, due to the formation of zinc ferrite inclusions during the roasting process, high temperature and high acid leaching must be used to obtain more tha...
