Combining analysis of XRD and optical microscopy (OM), the experiments sintered in CaO-SiO2-CaF2 system were carried out to investigate the formation of cuspidine (Ca4Si2O7F2) and the action on calcium ferrite (CaFe2O4). The results showed that when the sample was sintered at 1050℃, Ca2SiO4 was generated first by the reaction of CaO and SiO2, then the Ca2SiO4 reacted with CaF2 and SiO2 to form the Ca4Si2O7F2. Ca4Si2O7F2 and CaFe2O4 both can coexist stably at 1200℃. The existence of free SiO2 is the key factor to degradation of CaFe2O4 during the sintering process of fluorine-containing ore. SiO2 reacted with CaFe2O4 to generate Ca2SiO4 and Ca2Fe22O33, but the amount of Ca2Fe22O33 decreased with increase of SiO2, up to disappearance of Ca2Fe22O33 when SiO2 was 6.0%(w), and then formed Ca2SiO4 and Fe2O3. Finally Ca2SiO4 reacted with CaF2 and SiO2 to form Ca4Si2O7F2. An interesting phenomenon is found that CaF2 was added into the equivalent amount mixture of Ca4Si2O7F2 and CaFe2O4, the three also coexisted stably at 1200℃.
