Abstract: The present disclosure broadly relates to a process for recovering vanadium, iron, titanium and silica values from vanadiferous feedstocks. More specifically, but not exclusively, the present disclosure relates to a metallurgical process in which vanadium, iron, titanium and silica values are recovered from vanadiferous feedstocks such as vanadiferous titanomagnetite, iron ores, vanadium slags and industrial wastes and by-products containing vanadium. The process broadly comprises digesting the vanadiferous feedstocks into sulfuric acid thereby producing a sulfation cake; dissolving the sulfation cake and separating insoluble solids thereby producing a pregnant solution; reducing the pregnant solution thereby producing a reduced pregnant solution; and crystallizing ferrous sulfate hydrates from the reduced pregnant solution, producing an iron depleted reduced solution.
