The mining of columbite/tantalite (COLTAN) has a negative effect on the different spheres of the environment notably; hydrosphere, lithosphere, and the atmosphere (Eisler 2004). Just like gold mining, COLTAN extraction involves the breaking of crystallographic bond in the mineral ore to get the products in the pure form.

Tantalum minerals with over 70 different chemical compositions have been identified. Those of greatest economic importance are tantalite, microlite,and wodginite; however, it is common practice to name any tantalum-containing mineral concentrate as 'tantalite' primarily because it will be processed for the tantalum values and is sold on that …

This study uses the term 'coltan' when referring to in-region mining, processing and trading activities while the term 'tantalum' is used when referring to metal grades and international market aspects. ... Late Neoproterozoic over of the cassiterite and columbite-tantalite bearing pegmatites of the Gatumba area, Rwanda …

Through this process, tantalite gets more concentrated while moving down through the several steps of the milling procedure, and the tantalite recovery yield is reported at around 70% (GSE 2010). At the end of ore-processing facilities, the tantalite concentrate is transferred to stainless-steel trays and dried in a cabinet warmed with a …

Simple sluices (Fig. 10) are used in artisanal mining especially for gold processing, often for preconcentration. As tantalite has a density, depending on mineralization, between 6.6 and 8.0 g/cm³ and is therefore much lighter than gold, the sluices have to be designed differently and must also operate differently.
