The invention provides a method for recovering
quartz from
tungsten tailings, which comprises the following steps: S1, roughing
mica: firstly putting the
tungsten tailings into a container, then adding
sodium carbonate, stirring for 1 minute, adjusting the pH value of a
system to 10.5, then adding 300g / t of BSP and 60g / t of NA, and stirring for 3 minutes to obtain roughed
mica and
mica concentrate; and S2, mica
scavenging, wherein
sodium carbonate is added into the roughed mica obtained in the S1. According to the method for recovering the
quartz from the
tungsten tailings, through the steps of mica roughing, mica
scavenging,
quartz impurity removal roughing, quartz
impurity removal
scavenging and the like, process
mineralogy results of the ores are fully considered, and aiming at
gangue minerals such as mica,
chlorite, schorlite and the like contained in the ores, firstly, the mica is floated under the alkaline condition, and then the quartz is separated from the
gangue minerals under the alkaline condition; and then other impurities are floated under acidity, and the means of ore
grinding and the like are properly assisted, so that the fresh surface of the ore is exposed, and the ore is easier to act with a medicament, thereby improving the flotation efficiency.
