Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tailings recovery, and in particular to a method for recovering tin from high-mud polymetallic tailings. Background Art

[0002] my country is the largest producer and consumer of metals. The shortage of various mineral resources has become increasingly prominent. About one-third of various mineral raw materials need to be imported each year. The shortage of resources has become an important factor restricting the sustainable development of society. However, various mineral resources in my country, especially the difficult-to-treat high-mud polymetallic tailings, have not been reasonably utilized due to the lack of effective processing technology. A large number of minerals have caused environmental problems. At the same time, there are also a large number of difficult-to-treat high-mud polymetallic tailings. The potential economic value of this part of the ore is inestimable, but due to its extremely complex ore properties, high oxidation rate, large mud content, and poor, fine, and impure characteristics, it has not been reasonably and effectively developed and utilized. At the same time, it has caused serious threats to environmental protection and safety, and to some extent, it has also increased the difficulty of environmental governance. For a long time, the development and comprehensive recycling of difficult-to-treat high-mud polymetallic tailings resources has always been highly concerned by people from all walks of life in the industry, and a lot of effort has been devoted to it.

[0003] Cassiterite in polymetallic tailings is brittle and easy to become muddy. It is easy to be over-crushed during the crushing and grinding process, resulting in a large amount of fine-grained cassiterite, which is difficult to effectively recover, resulting in a large amount of tin tailings in the tailings. Usually, the tailings have a finer particle size. After the original ore is ground, secondary ore mud will be produced. Together with some primary ore mud, these ore muds will eventually enter the tailings. Therefore, high mud content is also a major feature of tailings resources. Low grade, fine particle size, and high mud content are the main factors causing low tailings recovery rate and high processing cost. The economic and efficient development and utilization of tailings has become a major problem in mineral processing technology. Summary of the invention
