The invention discloses an efficient flotation method for medium-low-grade and co-associated hard-to-utilize
bauxite. The efficient flotation method is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1) selecting medium-low-grade co-associated
bauxite; (2) crushing the selected
bauxite through a
crusher; (3)
grinding the crushed bauxite through an autogenous mill and a
ball mill, checking and screening; (4) mixing and grading the
slurry subjected to ore
grinding treatment; (5) adding a flotation
reagent into the qualified
slurry, carrying out flotation through a flotation
machine, and carrying out flotation separation to obtain concentrate
slurry after the flotation
reagent is added; according to the method, bauxite resources are fully and reasonably recycled to the maximum extent, and
diaspore,
gibbsite,
boehmite and soil in the accumulated bauxite are mainly mixed together. In terms of 70%
recovery, the ore with the fine fraction smaller than 1 mm can be recovered through flotation, so that the industrial index of the accumulated bauxite and the content of beneficial minerals in the fine fraction slime with the fine fraction smaller than 1 mm of the mud-containing bauxite are comprehensively considered, the boundary ore content can be at least reduced to be below 100 kg / m < 3 >, and the resource reserve of the accumulated bauxite in Guangxi province can be reduced to be below 100 kg / m < 3 >. The number can be multiplied without inputting a large number of exploration projects; the method provided by the invention can reduce the tailing
discharge amount, thereby occupying less
cultivated land and reducing the tailing
discharge cost, can improve the A / S of the wash concentrate, and has obvious
economic benefits for improving the productivity, alkali consumption and other indexes of
alumina factories.
