Abstract
A comprehensive literature survey on the production and concentrationof the antimonial ore stibnite in Turkey has been done. Methods and ways of beneficiation from stibniteores and concentrates to produce crudum, antimony trioxides, antimony trisulfides, antimony pentasulfide, antimony trichloride, lead antimonate and metallic antimony have been reviewed. Possible uses of these compounds as pigments fire retarding additives catalysts as major antimonial chemicals of various industries have been investigated. Practical laboratory set-ups have been devised to produce antimony trioxide and antimony trichloride. Antimony trioxide has been tried to be produced through oxidation and volatilization of stibnite ores and concentrates and of metallic antimony and by hydrolysis of antimony trichloride.
