Beneficiation method of seashore Tantalite

Tantalite is an important metal ore, which is widely used in electronics, metallurgy, chemical industry and other fields. The coastal Tantalite refers to the tantalite ore distributed near the coastline. Due to its unique location, the beneficiation methods are also different. This paper will introduce the beneficiation method and operation steps of seashore Tantalite.

1、 Beneficiation method of seashore Tantalite

Beneficiation methods of seaside Tantalite mainly include gravity separation, flotation, magnetic separation, electric separation and other processes. Among them, gravity separation is the most commonly used method, whose basic principle is to separate minerals according to their density differences. Flotation, on the other hand, utilizes the differences in the affinity and hydrophobicity between minerals and water for separation. Magnetic separation and electrical separation utilize the reactions of minerals to magnetic and electric fields for separation.

II. Beneficiation steps of seashore Tantalite

1. Crushing and screening of ore

First crush the collected seaside tantalum iron ore, and then screen the crushed ore to obtain ores with different particle sizes.

2. Reselection

The screened ore is re selected and sorted using gravity. The ore is put into the gravity separator for separation according to the density difference of minerals. After gravity separation, high grade Tantalite is obtained.

3. Flotation

Flotation is carried out on the re sorted ore, utilizing the differences in the affinity and hydrophobicity between minerals and water for separation. Put the ore into a flotation machine and add reagents to cause a chemical reaction between the mineral and water, producing bubbles and causing the mineral to float. After flotation, high grade Tantalite is obtained.

4. Magnetic separation

Magnetic separation is carried out on the ore after flotation, using the reaction of minerals to the magnetic field for separation. Place the ore into a magnetic separator and use the magnetic field to force the minerals for sorting. After magnetic separation, high grade Tantalite is obtained.

5. Electrical selection

The ore after magnetic separation is subjected to electrical separation, and the reaction of minerals to the electric field is used for separation. Place the ore into an electric separator and use an electric field to force the minerals for sorting. After electric separation, high grade Tantalite is obtained.

3、 Summary

Beneficiation methods of seaside Tantalite mainly include gravity separation, flotation, magnetic separation, electric separation and other processes. The beneficiation operation steps include ore crushing and screening, gravity separation, flotation, magnetic separation, electrical separation, and other steps. Through the above steps, high grade Tantalite can be obtained, which provides an important raw material basis for subsequent smelting and processing.
