Abstract:An ilmenite ore possesses the following properties :dissemination size of ilmenite is uneven ;the magnetism of gangue mineral hornblende is enhanced by ilmenite or magnetite inclusions in it ;the theoreti‐cal recovery rate of TiO2 is only about 65, .In view of these properties ,the stage grinding and the stage separation were used to recycle ilmenite .First ,the rough titanium concentrate was gained by one roughing and one cleaning for high‐intensity magnetic separation after the crude ore was grinded to 53 .37, -0 .074 mm .Then ,iron was removed via the second high‐magnetic separation and one medium‐magnetic separation after the rough ilmenite concentrate was grinded to 80, -0 .074mm .When the TiO2 grade of crude ore was 7 .93, ,ilmenite concentrate was obtained with TiO2 grade of 48 .10, and recovery of 45 .82, .
