Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mineral processing, and more specifically, to a method for separating lead-zinc oxide ore. Background Art

[0002] The mineral composition of muddy oxidized lead-zinc ore is complex, with high content of fine mud and soluble salts, and the ore is extremely difficult to be separated, resulting in unsatisfactory conventional flotation process indicators of oxidized lead-zinc ore. At present, the most commonly used mineral processing technology for treating muddy oxidized lead-zinc ore is the desludging-flotation process. However, the desludging process of this process will lead to zinc oxide loss, and the separation indicators fluctuate greatly with the desludging effect, and stable production is generally not possible on site. In order to obtain better separation effects, mineral processing workers have tried a variety of mineral processing methods in recent years, such as flocculation flotation, carrier flotation, flotation using chelating collectors, sulfidation roasting-flotation, and multi-method combination processes. However, these processes have not yet made breakthrough progress, and the flotation of complex oxidized lead-zinc ores has always been a difficult problem in the mineral processing industry.

[0003] For example, the patent number CN100391616C discloses a method for beneficiating zinc oxide ore. The process first performs fine-grained flotation on the lead flotation tailings and then performs coarse-grained flotation. The patent solves the problem that it is difficult to flot muddy zinc oxide in the prior art, targeting the floating characteristics of muddy zinc oxide, which first floats small particles and then floats large particles. Useful zinc minerals can be floated out of muddy zinc oxide ore, and the recovery rate of zinc oxide is also improved, and the zinc oxide content of the tailings is reduced. However, the process requires the use of a large amount of fine-grained gangue mineral inhibitors, the reagent system is relatively complicated, and the process also requires desludging, resulting in partial zinc mineral loss.

[0004] For another example, the patent number: CN103182344 B discloses a combined beneficiation process for treating high-mud lead-zinc oxygen-sulfur mixed ores. The process performs screening and desliming before grinding, and the coarse particles in the grinding product are re-selected. The re-selection tailings and the sedimentation sand from the cyclone desliming are combined and then ground, and then flotation is performed. The removed ore mud is also floated. The process uses a combination of gravity selection and flotation to grade the oxidized lead-zinc ore. However, the process also has a desliming link, which is a desliming flotation. Although there is a sludge flotation link, the recovery rate of fine-grained ore mud flotation is relatively low, which affects the overall recovery rate.

[0005] In summary, at present, the most commonly used mineral processing technology for treating muddy oxidized lead-zinc ore is the desludging-flotation process. However, the desludging process of this process will lead to zinc oxide loss, and the separation index fluctuates greatly with the desludging effect, resulting in the problem that the production on site cannot be stabilized.

The method for separating lead-zinc oxide ore according to claim 1, characterized in that: During the lead oxide flotation treatment of the first pulp, The first pulp is subjected to lead oxide flotation by adopting a method of two-stage lead oxide roughing, two-stage lead oxide cleaning and one-stage second fine scavenging; wherein, In both the rough lead oxide selections, sodium sulfide is first added to activate the lead oxide, and then the lead oxide collector and the second frother are added; in the second fine scavenging, the lead oxide collector is added; and / or, During the lead oxide flotation treatment of the first slurry, the lead oxide collector and the second frother are both saturated.

7. The method for separating lead-zinc oxide ore according to claim 6, characterized in that: The lead oxide collector is one of butyl xanthate, pentyl xanthate, isobutyl xanthate, isopentyl xanthate, No. 25 black medicine, butyl ammonium black medicine, and isobutyl sodium black medicine, or at least two of them mixed in any proportion; And / or, the second foaming agent is one of No. 2 oil, MIBC, alcohol substances, ether alcohol substances, or at least two of them mixed in any proportion.

8. The method for separating lead-zinc oxide ore according to claim 1, characterized in that: In the process of subjecting the second pulp to zinc oxide flotation treatment, The second pulp is subjected to zinc oxide flotation by adopting two stages of zinc oxide roughing, two stages of zinc oxide concentrating and one stage of third fine scavenging; wherein, In the two-stage zinc oxide roughing, sodium sulfide is first added to activate the zinc oxide, and then the zinc oxide collector and the third foaming agent are added; in the third fine scavenging, sodium sulfide and the zinc oxide collector are added; and / or, In the process of subjecting the second pulp to zinc oxide flotation treatment, the zinc oxide collector and the third frother are both saturated.

9. The method for separating lead-zinc oxide ore according to claim 8, characterized in that: The zinc oxide collector is a fatty amine or ether amine collector or a mixed collector of the two in any proportion; and / or, The third foaming agent is one of No. 2 oil, MIBC, alcohol substances, ether alcohol substances, or at least two of them mixed in any proportion.

10. The method for separating lead-zinc oxide ore according to claim 1, characterized in that: The final fineness of the lead-zinc oxide ore after grinding is -0.074 mm, accounting for 75% to 90%.
