To the question of using of low-grade phosphate rock from Synycheno-Yaremivske field of the Iziumskyi district

Abstract

Abstract The article is devoted to the study of low-grade phosphorites of the Synycheno-Yaremivske deposit in the Iziumskyi district of the Kharkiv region. The possibility of enrichment of this ore by three methods is considered: mechanical, thermal and chemical, carried out in laboratory conditions. The qualitative and quantitative composition of phosphorite has been determined using X-ray fluorescence analysis and electron microscopy with an attachment for energy dispersive analysis. Both natural and enriched raw materials have been studied. Based on the data obtained, it is possible to concentrate this ore with a subsequent increase in the P2O5 content, despite the abnormally large amount of iron.
