Abstract

In this paper, the size screening method and X-ray fluorescent spectroscopy were used to analyze low-grade bauxite samples from Darling Range, Australia. The results showed that the Av Al / Re Si(available alumina to reactive silica ratio) of samples JDB225 and JDB364 increased by 34.5% (8.7% to 11.7%) and 11.2% (8.9% to 9.9%); the available aluminum increased by 11.2% (27.8% to 30.9%) and 4.9% (30.9% to 32.4%) respectively. In screening, the optimum particle sizes of the two samples were 4 mm and 2.8 mm respectively. The results show that the best screening particle size can be determined by the size screening method, which can achieve the optimal combination of available aluminum grade, Av Al / Re Si and mass recovery rate, so as to significantly improve the grade and Av Al / Re Si of low-grade bauxite.
