Abstract: The process in which the vanadium residue produced from the extraction of V₂O₅ from panzhihua V-bearing titanomagnetite is used as the raw material to manufacture metallic gallium and electrolytic pure iron is presented. The reduction smelting, iron electrolysis, acid leaching, extraction and gallium electrolysis were incorporated in the process. The successful trial provides a new way to extract metallic gallium from iron-bearing minerals.
