Antimony metal and various antimony compounds (such as antimony trioxide and trisulphate) are produced from the ore. Exposure to antimony dust occurs during the mining, crushing and processing of the ore; however the highest exposures to both antimony dust and fumes are likely to occur in smelting and refining processes. ...
Technical Products and Impurities: Antimony (III) sulfide, 68.5% Sb, 27% sulfur, as a black powder, is available from Sigma-Aldrich (2001a,b). If antimony ore contains more than 90% stibnite, it can be sold directly for producing antimony compounds or conversion to antimony metal (Herbst . et al., 1985). Crude
Therefore, antimony trioxide (Sb 2 O 3 ) is now the most important product among antimony compounds. In nature, antimony …

The clean production process for extracting antimony from refractory gold ore involves sodium sulfide leaching, pressure oxidation, concentration, and crystallization steps. First, the stibnite in the refractory gold ore reacts with sodium sulfide, and antimony is dissolved into the leaching solution in the form of sodium thioantimonite …
Antimony sulfide (Sb 2 S 3, stibnite) is a semiconductor nanomaterial with orthorhombic crystal structure [1, 2].It has outstanding properties and potential applications in electronic and optoelectronic devices [75].One attractive property of Sb 2 S 3 is the crystal structure, which consists of double (Sb 4 S 6) n ribbon units linked through van der Waals forces in …
Abstract. Electrodeposited antimony can be treated with sulfuration–volatilization technology, which causes antimony to volatilize in the form of antimony sulfide. During this process, gold is enriched in …
Abstract. The supergiant Xikuangshan Sb deposit is located in the Middle to Upper Devonian limestone of central Hunan, China. Primary ores are composed of early‐stage stibnite and calcite with rare pyrite, early main‐stage stibnite and quartz, and late main‐stage stibnite and calcite. New sulfur isotope data reveal the clustering of δ34S …
Antimony features highly on the critical minerals lists of many countries including Australia 3, the United States of America 4, Canada 5, Japan 6 and the European Union 7. Critical minerals are those minerals (or elements) considered vital for the well-being of the world's economies, yet whose supply may be at risk of disruption. JORC Ore …
Antimony is seldom found in nature as a native metal because of its strong affinity for sulfur and metals such as copper, lead and silver. In fact, the word antimony ... In ancient times, in extracting antimony from sulfide ore by the addition of iron, a starlike fern shaped crystalline pattern appeared during the course of solidification. ...
Antimony. A native element, antimony metal is extracted primarily from stibnite, which contains 72 percent antimony and 28 percent sulfur. Stibnite is mined in only a few countries, with China being its largest producer. Antimony is used for many technological and industrial purposes. Antimony is used as a hardening alloy for lead, especially ...

The concentrate of sulfur antimony ore, leached with a solution of caustic alkali according to the known techniques dissolves, as sulfur salts as much Sb as possible, …
The most common antimony ore mineral is stibnite, which may contain traces of other metals, including copper, iron, gold, lead, and silver (Pohl, 2011). Stibnite occurs in numerous mineral deposit types (Cox and Singer, 1986). Antimony ore may also carry undesirable elements, such as arsenic and mercury (Pohl, 2011).
The value of antimony consumption in 2021 was about $320 million. In the United States, the leading uses of antimony were as follows: flame retardants, 40%; metal products, including antimonial lead and ammunition, 36%; and nonmetal products, including ceramics and glass and rubber products, 24%. Salient Statistics—United States: 2017.
Three generations of ore-related pyrite (Py1, Py2 and Py3) and two generations of stibnite (Stb1 and Stb2) are identified based on their texture, chemistry, and sulfur isotopes. The pre-ore Py1 is characterized by the lower ore element (Au, As, Sb, Cu and Ag) contents (mostly below the LA-ICP-MS detection limit) and Co/Ni ratios (average 0.31 ...

Only about ten of them have any of antimony has been used for antimony batteries in industrial value, usually those including stibnite, both the military and automotive industries; this has jamesonite, senarmontite, yellow antimony ore, sulfur led to a sharp increase in the demand for antimony [5].
The sulfur isotope test reveals that the δ 34 S values of gold and antimony deposits both concentrate in a small range near 0‰, and the S isotope composition is similar to that of mantle sulfur, indicating that the sulfur in the ore-forming materials of the gold and antimony deposits mainly come from deep mantle. The research results lay the …
Because the sulfur isotopes range of stibnite in the ore is similar to that of magmatic sulfur isotopes composition (0 ± 5‰), some scholars hold different views that the Qinglong antimony ...
Sulfur in crude antimony is present in the form of Sb 2 S 3. Since the chemical properties of antimony and sulfur are largely different, it can be easily removed. This is rather evident from the Sb-S phase equilibria where liquid antimony and molten Sb 2 S 3 are immiscible. That is, only up to 1.5 wt% sulfur dissolves in antimony.
The occurrence of antimony (Sb 0) in its original state is rare, mostly because of its high affinity for sulfur and other metals/metalloids, including cobalt, lead, …

Environmental context Phytoremediation requires an understanding of bioconcentration and translocation processes that determine behaviour and fate of potentially toxic elements. We studied the distribution of antimony and arsenic in terrestrial and aquatic soil-plant systems in an antimony ore zone. We found that the common …
Therefore, sulfur and molybdenum isotopes are potential powerful tools for tracing the biogeochemical cycle of Sb and its attenuation in groundwater. Hundreds of years of mining activities have formed a number of adits in the XKS Sb mine, which can provide easy access to groundwaters that have interacted with the ore vein.
