The high antimony ores are metallurgically complex and whether the contained antimony becomes commercially available is dependent on the success of ongoing research and development of processing techniques (Mining Technology, ).
Antimony Recovery from End-of-Life Products and Industrial … Antimony has become an increasingly critical element in recent years, due to a surge in industrial demand and the Chinese domination of primary production. Antimony is produced from stibnite ore (Sb2O3) which is processed into antimony metal and antimony oxide (Sb2O3).
Antimony-rich gold ores are the ultimate challenge for gold recovery. Unlike other refractory ores, stibnite doesn’t just trap gold—it actively sabotages extraction, forming chemical barriers that block leaching and foul up solutions. Learn why these ores are gold’s toughest companions and what makes them so uniquely difficult to crack.
2025318· Antimony, a key metal with a wide range of applications in industries such as flame retardants, batteries, and alloys, has seen growing demand. High-yield antimony processing plants are essential for meeting this demand efficiently. In this article, we will delve into advanced recovery systems used in these plants and conduct a detailed cost analysis.

Oxidation roasting is often used in sulfide ore smelting. It is used to remove the sulfur ore, arsenic, antimony, and other harmful impurities in ore. In oxidation roasting, the sulfide ore is first decomposed into low-valence sulfide and sulfur, and then the oxide is formed. The oxidation roasting of some sulfide ores is exothermic.
41· In the air oxidation roasting process, the major components (FeAsS, FeS 2) of the sulfide refractory gold ore would convert into iron oxides, arsenic oxides, sulfur oxides, sulfate and arsenate (Mikhail and Turcotte, 1992).
201232· Antimony is not readily convertible between its two cationic forms under neutral conditions (ATSDR, 1992). Antimony is geochemically found in the common ore stibnite, which is primarily Sb2S3. The substance has been used since antiquity as a cosmetic to darken eyebrows.
In the sulfuric acid production, pyritic roasting to prepare sulfur dioxide is a typical oxidation roasting, widely used in the metallurgical process for obtaining copper or zinc oxide and meanwhile sulfur dioxide by oxidizing and roasting copper or zinc sulfide ores.
