The process of proparing manganese from pyrolusite by reductive leaching are studied and the optimum leaching condition is obtained. On leaching conditions as follows pyrolusite∶pyrite∶sulfuric acid ratio is 1∶0 3∶0 45, the leaching temperature 96℃, leaching time 7 h, the solid liqud ratio is 1∶5, leaching Mn percentage of 97 00%. The technology has some advntages, such as saving energy, low production cost and high recovery of Mn.
