Abstract:
A method is provided for recovering scandium values from scandium-bearing ores. The method includes providing a scandium-bearing ore; subjecting the scandium-bearing ore to atmospheric pressure acid leaching with sulfuric acid, thereby producing a first, scandium-bearing solution containing ferric (Fe 3+ ) ions; subjecting the first solution to hydrothermal processing, thereby precipitating from the first solution a material selected from the group consisting of hematite and basic iron sulfates and generating a second, scandium-bearing solution; and recovering scandium values from the second solution.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 10 , wherein subjecting the second solution to acid retardation generates third and fourth solutions, wherein the third solution contains the majority of the scandium content present in the second solution, and wherein the fourth solution contains the majority of the acid content present in the second solution.
