ABSTRACT The present invention is a process for the production and recovery of an O2-lean argon stream from a gas mixture containing argon and oxygen. The argon-containing gas mixture is initially treated in a cryogenic separation unit to produce a crude argon stream having an argon concentration between 80-98%. The crude argon stream is passed to a membrane separation unit where it is separated to produce an O2-lean argon stream and an O2-rich stream. The O2-rich stream is recycled to the cryogenic separation unit and the O2-lean argon stream is recovered as product or further purified.
