Aside from antimony ore grade, this decision falls on the mineral's association with other metals, for e.g. lead, copper, iron, mercury, arsenic, silver and gold, as well as other parameters such as ore matrix and type (sulfide or oxide).
In this paper these samples are referred to as mineralogical samples, i.e. samples which were used to study primary features of Sb-bearing minerals as found in the uncrushed ore. For each mineralogical sample, a polished thin section was prepared and chemical assays were obtained from the residual drill core material (i.e. ca. 30–50 cm …
INTRODUCTION. Antimony (Sb) (atomic number 51; atomic mass 121.75 g/mol; density 6.684 g/cm 3; melting point 631°C) occurs naturally as a sulphide ore, stibnite (Sb 2 S 3) and valentinite (Sb 2 0 3).The traditional method of treating the ore is to roast it with charcoal or coke and collect the volatile oxide fume (Sb 4 O 6) from which pure …
As and Sb in the sample were reached 1.28 and 1.23mass%, respectively (Table 1). The major mineral phases identified with the XRD analysis of the copper-bearing ore sample used were tennantite, tetrahedrite, pyrite (FeS 2), and quartz (SiO 2) that is the main gangue mineral in the ore. Chemical content of the samples from roasting were ...
