TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of low-grade mineral recovery, and particularly relates to a high-efficiency comprehensive recovery method for low-grade complex oxidized lead-zinc gold-silver ore. BACKGROUND
[0002] China is a country with extremely rich oxidized lead-zinc ore, however, with the development of lead-zinc gold-silver deposits, rich ore resources are decreasing, the ore grade is gradually reduced, and the complexity of oxidized ore is increasingly highlighted. The lead-zinc gold-silver deposit is often associated with noble metals gold and silver, and has extremely high comprehensive development and utilization value, but the ore structure is complex, the gold and silver are finely disseminated, more exist in inclusions, and the associated components are unstable, containing a large amount of clay, hematite, limonite and soluble salt.
[0003] At present, the separation and recovery of polymetallic oxidized lead-zinc ore mainly adopts the grinding-dispersant reinforced dispersion full-sliming ore pulp flotation process, however, this method has many problems: first, the content of soluble ions and slime in the ore is high, even if a large amount of dispersant is used, the ore pulp is difficult to be effectively dispersed, resulting in large consumption of flotation reagents, and the flotation index (grade and recovery rate) is difficult to improve; second, for the ore with fine or complex dissemination, pre-desliming will cause a large amount of valuable minerals to be lost. In addition, when fine grinding-carbon leaching method is used to recover noble metals, due to the interference of non-ferrous metal minerals, the gold and silver recovery rate is low, the production cost is high, and the valuable components such as lead and zinc are difficult to be effectively recovered, causing resource waste and environmental pollution risk.
[0004] Therefore, it is an inevitable trend to develop a new beneficiation process for oxidized lead-zinc gold-silver ore with short process, low cost, little pollution or no pollution. SUMMARY
[0005] In order to overcome the deficiencies and defects of the prior art, the application provides a high-efficiency comprehensive recovery method for low-grade complex oxidized lead-zinc gold-silver ore, which fully utilizes the ore properties, adopts two-stage selective crushing-grinding classification, pulse high-gradient magnetic separation and fine grinding-cyanide carbon pulp and multi-stage flotation combination, gradually reduces the influence of micro-fine particles on flotation, and improves the comprehensive recovery rate of the ore.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the application provides a high-efficiency comprehensive recovery method for low-grade complex oxidized lead-zinc gold-silver ore, which includes the following steps:
[0007] (1) Two-stage selective crushing and grinding classification: the ore to be treated is delivered to a semi-autogenous mill for one-stage coarse crushing and grinding to obtain slurry with a fineness of-10 mm, which is classified by a low-concentration classification cyclone to obtain coarse particle material of-10 mm to 0.074 mm and qualified fine particle material; the coarse particle material of-10 mm to 0.074 mm is delivered to a ball mill for two-stage fine grinding, and then classified by a classification cyclone to obtain qualified fine particle material and coarse particle material, which is returned to the ball mill for regrinding, and the qualified fine particle material obtained is-0.074 mm accounting for 70% to 80%;
[0008] This step utilizes the selective crushing and grinding of the semi-autogenous mill on the coarse particle material and the low grinding effect on the fine particle material, thereby reducing the generation of secondary slurry, and combining the φ350 mm classification cyclone for classification under low-concentration conditions to avoid the primary qualified fine particle material and slurry (especially low-hardness limonite) from entering the ball mill again to be ground finer to form a large amount of colloidal secondary slurry, affecting the subsequent recovery process, and also reducing the processing capacity of the ball mill and the grinding cost.
[0009] (2) Pulsed high-gradient magnetic separation: the qualified fine particle material obtained in step (1) is delivered to a pulsed high-gradient magnetic separation system for magnetic separation to pre-recover micro-fine particle hematite and limonite, and obtain gold-silver-iron-containing concentrate (containing hematite and limonite) and magnetic separation tailings;
[0010] This step pre-recover micro-fine particle hematite and limonite by pulsed high-gradient magnetic separation according to the wrapping effect of hematite and limonite on gold and silver, which not only realizes the recovery of gold and silver wrapped by them, but also reduces the content of micro-fine particle material, which is beneficial to subsequent flotation recovery.
[0011] (3) Cyanide carbon-in-pulp gold and silver extraction from gold-silver-iron-containing concentrate: after the gold-silver-iron-containing concentrate obtained in step (2) is finely ground to-0.037 mm accounting for 80% to 90%, it is delivered to a cyanide carbon-in-pulp system, lime is added for slurry adjustment to pH 10.5 to 11.5, sodium cyanide solution is added for gold and silver leaching, and gold and silver-loaded activated carbon and iron concentrate (containing hematite and limonite) are obtained by activated carbon adsorption;
[0012] This step utilizes the selective fine grinding of gold and silver-loaded hematite and limonite by the ball mill again before cyanide carbon-in-pulp gold and silver leaching to fully expose the wrapped gold and silver, thereby improving the cyanide carbon-in-pulp gold and silver leaching and adsorption effect and increasing the gold and silver recovery rate, and obtaining qualified hematite and limonite concentrate.
[0013] (4) Flotation of lead, gold and silver from magnetic separation tailings: the magnetic separation tailings obtained in step (2) are delivered to a gold-silver-lead flotation system, and after one-stage roughing, three-stage cleaning, and two-stage scavenging, gold-silver-lead-containing concentrate and lead flotation tailings are obtained; during the one-stage roughing and two-stage scavenging, an adjusting agent is added to enhance the floatability of the minerals;
[0014] The step uses the modifier to strengthen and activate the oxidized lead mineral in the flotation process, changes the chemical composition of the oxidized lead mineral surface, makes the mineral surface more easily react with the collector, and then realizes the synchronous collection of the lead sulfide and the oxidized lead mineral by using the synergistic effect of the collector combination, and the recovery rate is higher.
[0015] (5) Flotation of lead tailings for zinc: the lead tailings obtained in step (4) are transported to a zinc flotation system, and after one roughing, three times of cleaning, and two times of scavenging, a gold-silver-zinc concentrate and tailings are obtained; the activator is added during the one roughing and the two times of scavenging to enhance the floatability of the mineral.
[0016] Further, in step (1), the grinding concentration of the first rough grinding is 70% to 75%, and the classification concentration is 35% to 40%; the grinding concentration of the second fine grinding is 65% to 70%, and the classification concentration is 50% to 55%; the diameters of the two-stage classification cyclones are both φ350 mm.

[0018] Further, in step (3), the concentration of the sodium cyanide solution is 0.5‰ to 0.7‰; and the leaching slurry concentration is 30% to 40%.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present application: the present application first classifies the minerals by two-stage selective crushing and grinding before flotation, which avoids over-grinding of primary fine particles and slimes, and the subsequent flotation is affected by the over-grinding of slimes. The present application further reduces the adverse effects of fine materials on flotation by preferentially separating micro-fine hematite and limonite using pulse high-gradient magnetic separation. Subsequently, valuable metals in the tailings of magnetic separation and gold-silver-containing hematite and limonite concentrates are recovered using multi-stage flotation and carbon-in-pulp processes, respectively.
