Columbite–(Fe) Mineral during HF Acid Leaching - MDPI

Ta from columbite–(Fe)–columbite–(Mn) Series ore is hydrofluoric acid decomposition [3]. In this method, hydrofluoric acid with concentration of 60–70% is used to decompose columbite–(Fe)–columbite–(Mn) series mineral at 90–100 C. The main advantages of hy-drofluoric acid method are as follows: the process is simple, the ...
