Lead zinc metal is widely applied to various industries, is an important mineral resource in China, lead zinc sulfide ore is a main mineral raw material in lead zinc smelting industry at home and abroad currently, china has been the major country for producing lead and zinc metal and the major country for consumption, and is an important way for improving the development level of lead zinc metal industry in China by strengthening the lead zinc flotation separation effect of lead zinc sulfide ore, improving the comprehensive recovery rate of associated noble metal, reducing the beneficiation cost and the like in order to meet the increasing demands of lead zinc metal in China.
Compared with foreign lead-zinc sulfide ores, the lead-zinc sulfide ore deposit in China has the outstanding characteristics of more lean ores, less easy ore dressing, low lead, high zinc content and the like, so that the lead-zinc sulfide ore mine in China is generally treated by adopting a preferential flotation process of floating lead and inhibiting zinc. The process has high maturity and wide production application range, and has good application effect on the lead zinc sulfide ores which are easy to select and have a coarse granularity and weak mutual embedding relation in the process of galena and sphalerite embedding. However, with the development and utilization of the lead-zinc sulfide ores easy to select, when the conventional lead-zinc floatation process is adopted to treat the lead-zinc sulfide ores difficult to select, which are in compact dip dyeing and fine vein dip dyeing, the problems of poor lead-zinc separation effect, high zinc content in lead concentrate, large zinc sulfate consumption, high ore dressing cost caused by the necessity of fine grinding in the lead-zinc floatation process for realizing the sufficient separation of lead-zinc minerals, and the like exist, the influencing factors of lead-zinc separation difficulty include whether the principle flow is proper or not, the selectivity of a lead mineral collector, the inhibitor of zinc minerals and the like,
in recent years, domestic ore dressing workers have studied more in lead zinc ore, and have quite abundant achievements, for example, patent CN109174467a provides a combined medicament for inhibiting zinc ore by adopting ferricyanide and zinc sulfate, and the inhibitor can effectively improve the inhibiting effect on sphalerite, but ferricyanide can decompose extremely toxic hydrocyanic acid under the irradiation of light or ultraviolet light, so that the medicament is not beneficial to storage and use, and ferricyanide can remain in waste liquid after use, so that the environment is polluted, and the treatment difficulty is increased. Patent CN112246443a also provides a zinc blende combined inhibitor using copper sulfate and pectin to strengthen the inhibiting effect on zinc blende, but there are problems that the copper sulfate usage is too large, the zinc blende strongly inhibited by the combined inhibitor needs to be continuously added with a large amount of copper sulfate to realize reactivation, and the excessive copper sulfate has hidden trouble of exceeding standard of heavy metal ions on flotation wastewater, and the inhibiting effect on zinc blende is limited, the grinding fineness needs to be increased in the grinding step, and the grinding cost is higher.
Therefore, in order to improve the resource utilization rate of the lead zinc sulfide ore difficult to be separated, strengthen the inhibiting effect on the sphalerite, reduce the cost of lead zinc separation, reduce the pollution of the ore separation process to the environment, and develop a novel lead zinc sulfide sphalerite inhibitor difficult to be separated and a novel lead zinc sulfide ore flotation separation method are necessary.
