The invention discloses a method for preparing high-melting-point 
metal powder through multistage depth reduction, and belongs to the technical field of 
powder preparing. The method comprises the steps that dried high-melting-point metallic 
oxide powder and 
magnesium powder are mixed and then subject to the self-propagating reaction, and high-melting-point 
metal Me is one or several of W, Mo, Ta, Nb, V, Zr, Hf or Re; intermediate products are placed in a seal reaction kettle, 
hydrochloric acid serves as a leaching agent to carry out leaching, and low-valence 
oxide MexO precursor of low-valence high-melting-point 
metal is obtained; the precursor is evenly mixed with 
calcium powder to be pressed, a mixture is placed in a vacuum reduction furnace, heating is carried out to enable the temperature to rise to 700 DEG C to 1200 DEG C, deep reduction is carried out for 1 h to 6 h, 
hydrochloric acid serves as the leaching agent to carry out leaching on a deep reduction product, and through treatment, high-melting-point 
metal powder is obtained. The method is low in 
raw material cost, easy to operate, and low in requirement for process and instrument equipment, the foundation is laid for industrial production, and the high-melting-point 
metal powder has the beneficial effects of being high in purity, controllable in 
granularity distribution, high in powder activity and the like.
