The leach recovery of antimony was calculated using the analysis of the stibnite concentrate as well as the leach residue and its mass. The lixivium was recycled to the 250-cc glass balloons as the leaching solution until the antimony concentration in the circular lixivium was enriched to more than 70 g/L.
Under the optimum conditions, the direct recovery rate of antimony can reach 91.48%, and crude antimony with a purity of 96.00% has been achieved. 95.31% of sulfur is fixed in form of FeS in the ...
This study aimed to introduce a vacuum process for recovering and enriching antimony from low-grade stibnite. At the pressure of 10 Pa, by controlling heating temperature, Sb 2 S 3 and Sb 2 O 3 from stibnite (12.8 wt% Sb) was evaporated and enriched. We investigated the influence of vacuum distillation temperature and time on …
The clean production process for extracting antimony from refractory gold ore involves sodium sulfide leaching, pressure oxidation, concentration, and crystallization steps. First, the stibnite in the refractory gold ore reacts with sodium sulfide, and antimony is dissolved into the leaching solution in the form of sodium thioantimonite …
