Abstract

The utilization of low-grade manganese ores has drawn much attention owing to the rapid depletion of high-grade manganese ore resources. In this study, low-grade manganese carbonate ores were treated by roasting-ammonia leaching method. The effects of roasting temperature, roasting time, ammonia concentration, ammonium carbonate concentration and liquid-to-solid ratio on Mn leaching were discussed. The leaching efficiency of 85.6 for Mn was obtained under the following conditions: 650 of roasting temperature, 1 h roasting time, 14 mol/L of ammonia concentration, 2 mol/L of ammonium carbonate concentration, 80 min of leaching time and 5:1 of liquid/solid ratio.
