Antimony Ore Crushing Raw Material to Refined Concentrate
The reduction process separates antimony metal from the sulfur or oxygen in the ore. 2. Refining. The crude antimony from the smelting process is further refined to remove impurities. Electrolytic refining or zone refining techniques are employed, depending on the desired purity level. Environmental and Safety Considerations
