Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to recover roughly purified scandium, which is purified to an extent acceptable for a technique for highly purifying scandium, efficiently and without any complicated operation from a neutralization sediment (drainage sediment) generated in neutralizing acid mine drainage which contains a sulfur component. This scandium recovery process includes a washing step (S1) for washing a neutralization sediment (drainage sediment) and a dissolution step (S2) for subjecting the washed sediment obtained in the washing step (S1) to dissolution in an acid. It is preferable that the process further includes a re-dissolution step (S3) for subjecting a dissolution residue which remains after the dissolution in the dissolution step (S2) to dissolution with an acid. In the washing step (S1), the neutralization sediment is washed with a washing liquid until the pH of the post-washing liquid generated in the washing step becomes 6 or higher.
