You might checkout the function at the end of this org-ref issue:
https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref/issues/176

It provides a way to extract all bibtex src blocks to a file and is a
bit different than using org-babel-tangle.

> Oops. Consider the above pseudo-code. The bibtex block must be named, so that (org-babel-goto-NAMED...) can find it. And I'm not sure what "#+begin_src bibtex" actually means to Org. It might have to be a #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE or a "#+BEGIN_SRC <some_known_language>", but tangled to a .Bib file. If running latest Git head, it might also need ":eval no-export" on the bibtex block. Hopefully this is enough to help you solve it. Feel free to post an MWE if you get it working.
