TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ore dressing, in particular to a flotation reagent and a flotation separation method of copper-molybdenum-sulfur metal ore. BACKGROUND
[0002] Chalcopyrite, as the main copper-containing mineral, usually coexists with pyrite, molybdenite and other sulfur-containing minerals, and forms a copper-molybdenum-sulfur polymetallic sulfide deposit; thus, the effective separation of copper-molybdenum-sulfur is of great significance for the efficient development of copper resources. Currently, for low-grade co-associated copper-molybdenum-sulfur resources, a bulk flotation process is often used, that is, a large amount of activator and sulfide ore collector are added to recover copper together, which leads to the difficulty in effective separation of molybdenum-sulfur after bulk flotation, and thus the effective utilization is impossible.
[0003] Patent CN202111332583.4 discloses a separation and recovery method of ultra-low-grade refractory copper-molybdenum-sulfur ore, which develops a magnetic separation and flotation combined and coordinated separation and recovery process. The copper-molybdenum mixed sulfide ore is first subjected to mixed flotation to obtain a copper-molybdenum mixed rough concentrate, and then the copper-molybdenum mixed rough concentrate is subjected to pre-separation by magnetic separation to obtain a magnetic separation concentrate copper sulfide and a magnetic separation tailing molybdenum sulfide. Finally, the magnetic separation concentrate and tailings are re-enriched by flotation to obtain copper sulfide and molybdenum sulfide concentrate products, respectively. The process can realize economic and efficient recovery of different grade copper-molybdenum mixed sulfide ore resources, can greatly reduce the amount of sodium sulfide, improve the working environment and reduce the environmental risk; however, the method does not realize the separation of copper, molybdenum and sulfur, and involves a magnetic separation step, which has a long process flow and high energy consumption.
[0004] Patent CN201911248477.0 discloses a copper, molybdenum, sulfur multi-metal separation flotation method, which comprises: mixing the raw ore with lime and grinding, and then adding flotation reagent A (dextrin, TS-1, 2# oil) for once roughing, once cleaning and once scavenging to obtain copper concentrate and tailings A; then adding flotation reagent B (TM-8) to tailings A for once roughing, four times cleaning and once scavenging to obtain molybdenum concentrate and tailings B; and then adding flotation reagent C (sulfur, butyl xanthate) to tailings B for once roughing, twice cleaning and once scavenging to obtain sulfur concentrate and tailings D. The method realizes multi-element separation and has comprehensive recovery value; however, the grade and recovery rate of copper, molybdenum and sulfur in the method still cannot achieve a high level.
[0005] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY
