The invention relates to a copper-zinc separation beneficiation method which comprises the following steps: (1) primary grinding, that is, adopting a combined depressant comprising lime, sodium sulfide, zinc sulfate, and sodium sulfite under the condition that the size and the content of grinding particles are respectively -0.074 mm and 65 to 70 percent; (2) copper rough concentrates regrinding and concentration, that is, selecting out high-quality copper concentrates which contain high-grade copper and silver, but low zinc by adopting single groove speed flotation method and continually using the combined depressant constituted by lime, sodium sulfide, zinc sulfate, and sodium sulfite, so as to realize the zinc depressing and copper flotation; (3) zinc-sulfur separation, that is, using butyl xanthate as a collecting agent to float zinc, obtaining zinc-sulphur bulk concentrate, conducting pulp conditioning by adding lime so as to depress sulfur and float copper and obtain zinc concentrates and partial sulfur concentrates, conducting the iso-flotation on the tailings and further adding the butyl xanthate to conduct flotation and obtain partial sulfur concentrate. The invention has the advantages of adopting the processes of ore blending, primary grinding, copper rough concentrates regrinding and concentration, and zinc-sulphur iso-flotation technological process, thereby better solving the problem that the copper concentrates contain too much zinc or the copper content in the zinc concentrates is over standard.
