Antimony Compounds

Antimony is a silvery-white metal that is found in the earth's crust. Antimony ores are mined and then either changed to antimony metal or combined with oxygen to form antimony oxide. (1) Antimony xide is a white powder that is very slightly soluble in water. (1) Antimony metal is a very brittle, moderately hard metal. (1)

Record antimony production at Olimpiada

In 2018, the Olimpiada mine entered the antimony supply chain with an output of 23.6kt Sb – instantly becoming the world's largest source of antimony concentrates. The concentrate from Olimpiada required antimony smelters in China to adapt their flow sheets to account for the higher gold and lower antimony grades compared to other gold ...

The exposure to and health effects of antimony

INTRODUCTION. Antimony (Sb) (atomic number 51; atomic mass 121.75 g/mol; density 6.684 g/cm 3; melting point 631°C) occurs naturally as a sulphide ore, stibnite (Sb 2 S 3) and valentinite (Sb 2 0 3).The traditional method of treating the ore is to roast it with charcoal or coke and collect the volatile oxide fume (Sb 4 O 6) from which pure …

PUBLIC HEALTH STATEMENT ANTIMONY

antimony in dust if you live or work near antimony mines or processing companies. The concentration of antimony that is dissolved in rivers and lakes is very low, usually less than 5 parts of antimony in 1 billion parts of water (ppb). We cannot measure such small amounts without special equipment. Antimony does not appear to

Polyus back as world's biggest antimony producer

However, balance has only been obtained in terms of contained units in concentrate, as (1) not all antimony ingot smelters in China are equipped to process the gold-rich lower-grade antimony concentrates from Polyus and (2) sanctions from the US and Europe have placed pressure on Chinese ingot exporters. As a result, despite feedstock moving ...
