Abstract: School of Resources and Civil Engineering，Northeastern University，Shenyang 110819，China There is 0.79% WO₃ in a tungsten ore in Liaoning Province.Distribution rate of tungsten in wolframite is 78.48%.Gravity separation operation was used by on-sits process，and gravity concentrate index with WO₃ grade of only 22%~23% and recovery of 88%~89% is obtained.To improving the concentrate index，magnetic separation-flotation-leaching experiments on the gravity concentrate was conducted.Results show that magnetic concentrate with WO₃ grade of 23.54% is obtained via magnetic separation for iron removal at field intensity of 80 kA/m on the gravity concentrate，reverse flotation concentrate with WO₃ grade of 53.08% is gained through reverse flotation on the magnetic concentrate using butyl xanthate as collector，concentrate with WO₃ grade of 65.11%，yield recovery rate of 96.71% and total recovery rate of 82.42% is obtained by purification via leaching with hydrochloric acid as leaching agent.The effective recovery of the tungsten resource is obtained.
