Tantalum mineral processing tantalum ores are typically processed by careful milling of the ore to liberate the ne tantalum minerals. Following this initial stage, the milled ore is subjected to a series of physical or non-chemical processes involving the use of gravity separation techniques. The gravity techniques utilize the earth’s natural gravitational (1g) force to separate the heavy tantalum (plus tin and niobium) minerals from the lighter host rock or waste.
