摘要
In this paper the steps of ore dressing and characterization of quartz from Tanhacu/BA were developed for using it as raw material for production of metallurgical grade silicon (SiGM) with low levels of impurities. The quartz sample after steps of crushing, calcining followed by quenching and autogenous grinding for 2 hours resulted in a product with a high SiO2 content (> 99%), an increase of nearly 2% compared to the original sample, and a considerable decrease in the levels impurities, boron and phosphorus, and others as, iron, aluminium and calcium, that also affect the quality of quartz. The results indicate that this quartz has potential to be used in the production of high purity SiGM, quite different from conventional SiGM.
