As a key non-metallic mineral, barite, with characteristics such as high specific gravity, low toxicity, and strong chemical stability, has become a core raw material in fields like oil drilling, coatings, rubber, and medicine. Barite used in drilling fluids can balance downhole pressure, while adding barite to coatings can improve coverage and weather resistance. However, natural barite ore often contains impurities such as quartz, calcite, and pyrite, which directly affect product performance. Professional mineral processing technology has thus become a core link to improve barite purity and release resource value.
We adopt a full-process mineral processing technology of "pretreatment-separation-purification" and customize solutions for ores of different grades. First, we crush and grind to refine ore particles, then use gravity separation methods (such as jigging and shaking tables) to separate most gangue based on specific gravity differences, and finally combine flotation or magnetic separation to deeply remove residual impurities. The purity of the whole process can reach over 95%, meeting different industry standards such as oil drilling grade and chemical filler grade. Moreover, the water recycling rate exceeds 90%, featuring low energy consumption and low emissions, which conforms to the needs of green production.

The purified barite products can be directly supplied to oil extraction enterprises to reduce drilling risks, serve as functional fillers to promote the upgrading of the coating and plastic industries, and also be processed into medical barium meal raw materials to ensure medical safety. With technology as a bridge, we connect high-quality resources with industrial needs, helping enterprises reduce raw material costs, enhance product competitiveness, and at the same time promote the efficient utilization of barite resources to achieve the coordinated development of economic and ecological benefits.
Choosing a mature barite mineral processing solution is crucial for enterprises to ensure raw material quality and seize market opportunities. We will continue to optimize the technology, empower industrial upgrading with precise mineral processing, and enable barite resources to play a greater role in multiple fields.
As a stable barium sulphate mineral, barite serves as a vital non-metallic raw material across petroleum, chemical, medical, and other industries. With single-type barite deposits increasingly depleted, the focus has shifted towards developing barite ores with complex associated components. Their processing requires adaptable techniques, with the following four core methods being prevalent.
As a vital strategic mineral resource, the efficient separation of white tungsten ore remains a subject of significant interest. Flotation stands as the most prevalent and effective beneficiation technique for white tungsten ore. With the depletion of high-grade white tungsten ore resources, low-grade, complex and difficult-to-process white tungsten ores have become the primary focus of development, imposing heightened demands on flotation processes.
