Purified barium salts essentially devoid of strontium impurities, e.g., highly pure barium carbonate, are produced by liquid/liquid extracting an aqueous solution of impure barium values with an organic solvent medium which comprises at least one water-insoluble carboxylic acid, phosphonic acid monoester, or substituted 8-hydroxyquinoline extractant. The mixture of extraction is separated into a purified aqueous phase containing the desired barium salt values and an organic phase containing the impurity values sought to be removed.
