Beneficiation of niobium and titanium carbides from pyrochlore ore via carbothermic reduction followed by magnetic separation was investigated in this work. During carbothermic reduction, Nb, Ti and Fe oxides within the pyrochlore ore could be reduced into NbC, TiC and metallic iron, respectively.

The current beneficiation practice of both weathered carbonatite ores (Araxa and Catalao in Brazil) and fresh carbonatite ore (Saint-Honoré in Canada) is dominated by froth flotation, and niobium enrichment is achieved through multi-stage flotation with cationic amine as a collector (Roethe, 1989). Due to the inherent shortcomings of the ...

The Araxá facility uses a 15-stage beneficiation and processing operation. The process begins with the extraction of ore from the ground. The primary sources of niobium are deposits of an ore called pyrochlore. Ore extracted from the CBMM mine contains only 2.3% niobium, which may seem low but is more than that in most reserves.
