An experimental research on co-enrichment and recovery of multiminerals by flotation process was conducted for a lithium-niobium-tantalum-beryllium polymetallic ore in Western Sichuan. By adopting a process consisting of direct grinding and bulk flotation with self-developed EM-PN30 as a collector, a closed-circuit test produced a lithium-niobium-tantalum-beryllium concentrate grading 5.60% Li2O, 0.035% Nb2O5, 0.015% Ta2O5 and 0.138% BeO, with Li2O recovery of 85.98% and recoveries of other associated niobium, tantalum and beryllium at 73.13%, 78.33% and 52.58% respectively. It is concluded that a comprehensive enrichment and recovery of lithium, niobium, tantalum and beryllium from such polimetallic ore can be actualized, which can provide favorable conditions for the subsequent Nb/Ta separation and Li/Be separation by magnetic or gravity separation process.
