Tungsten ore is a rock from which the element tungsten can be economically extracted. The ore minerals of tungsten include wolframite, scheelite, and ferberite. Tungsten is used for making many alloys.Tungsten ore deposits are predominantly magmatic or hydrothermal in origin and are associated with felsic igneous intrusions.

Here are the characteristics of China tungsten resource.

 

1.Distribution is highly concentrated, reserves is rich.

61.37% tungsten reserves are concentrated in Hunan, Jiangxi and Henan provinces. Shizhuyuan in Hunan, Xihuashan and Dajishan in Jiangxi, Xingluokeng in Fujian, Jubangkeng in Guangdong, Damingshan in Guangxi and other deposits are large tungsten deposits.

 

2.Deposit types are complete, mineralization are varied.

In addition to modern Hydrothermal sedimentary deposit and tungsten-containing brine - evaporite deposit, almost all the world's known tungsten genesis type have been found in China.

 

3.Tungsten ore symbiotic components are various , with a lot of comprehensive utilization value.

There are more than 30 kinds of tungsten ore symbiotic components. The main tungsten ore symbiotic components are tin, molybdenum, bismuth, copper, lead, zinc, gold, silver, iron, sulfur, niobium, tantalum, lithium, beryllium, rare earth, dispersion element gallium, indium, thallium, rhenium and non-metallic mineral arsenic, fluorite and so on. Comprehensive recovery of these useful compositions in the selecting and smelting process, which is not only conducive to the rational exploitation of mineral resources, but also an important way to improve the economic benefits of mining.
