Abstract

The invention provides a method for separating and extracting copper and cobalt-nickel in low-grade complex mixed copper-cobalt ore, which uses low-grade complex mixed copper-cobalt ore (sulfide and oxide) as a raw material to extract an intermediate product of the copper and cobalt-nickel by adopting process flows of crushing and grinding ore into slurry, leaching the slurry with acidic villaumite by a wet method, extracting copper powder by reduction and replacement, vulcanizing and depositing nickel (cobalt), concentrating, drying, baking and hydrolyzing deposited mother solution at low temperature and the like. The method comprises main technical points that metallic elements in the mixed copper-cobalt ore are dissolved and leached by the acidic villaumite under normal pressure; copper in leaching liquor is reduced and deposited by a reducing agent; the cobalt and nickel are deposited by a vulcanizing agent to obtain the intermediate product; the mother solution is concentrated, dried, baked and hydrolyzed at low temperature after cobalt-nickel deposition to obtain metal oxide, metal oxychloride and hydrogen chloride containing iron, magnesium and the like; hydrogen chloride is reclaimed to obtain hydrochloric acid, and baked solid is leached into water to obtain chloride solution; and the hydrochloric acid and the chloride solution are used for leaching of ore slurry. The method comprehensively reclaims the copper, the cobalt-nickel and the like, and has the characteristics of high leaching rate of the copper and the cobalt-nickel, less energy consumption, low cost, closed circulation of chlorine (hydrochloric acid), less investment of project engineering and the like. The whole process is concise, clean and environment-friendly. The method is particularly applicable to large-scale industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for extracting and separating copper, cobalt and nickel from low-grade complex mixed copper-cobalt ore and comprehensively utilizing valuable metals. Background technique [0002] Copper, cobalt, nickel, etc. are important non-ferrous metals, which occupy an extremely important position in the global economy. Copper, cobalt and nickel often coexist in earth minerals; they mostly exist as sulfides and oxides. Due to the different geographical environments, the total content of copper, cobalt and nickel, sulfide ore and oxide ore are different. The copper-cobalt deposits that are completely weathered under hot and humid conditions are mainly oxide ore minerals, and most of them are sulfide and oxide. Mineral coexistence. [0003] For the treatment of low-grade mixed copper-cobalt ores, especially complex mixed copper with high content of silicon, iron and magnesium, there is no mature smelting process at home and abroa...
