Heap leaching has also been extended to the treatment of secondary sulphide copper ores, where oxidative conditions are generated in aerated heaps by the bacterially-assisted oxidation of ferrous iron to ferric iron. The treatment of
Modern petrochronology has been applied to several porphyry ore systems where field mapping has documented periods of hydrothermal vein formation bracketed by events of magma emplacement . Such outcrop relations allow definition of two types of "durations" or "lifetimes" in magmatic-hydrothermal ore systems (von Quadt et al., 2011).
Copper processing is a complicated process that begins with mining of the ore (less than 1% copper) and ends with sheets of 99.99% pure copper called cathodes, which will ultimately be made into products for everyday use.The …

It must be borne in mind that, although we study a specific flotation process for copper ores, its oxidized degree can vary within a range. Therefore, the range of copper grades in the feed was also chosen as independent variables for its study. The regression coefficients were obtained from a study experiment for the copper ore at the end of ...

Figure 1: Simplified cross-section through a porphyry copper system showing supergene/hypogene alteration and mineralization (modified from Gilbert and Park (1986)
Sediment-hosted stratiform copper deposits are the products of evolving basin-scale fluid-flow systems that include source(s) of metal and S, source(s) of metal- and S-transporting fluids, the transport paths of these fluids, a thermal and/or hydraulic pump to collect and drive the fluids, and the chemical and physical processes which result in ...
Bornite (Cu5FeS4), covellite (CuS) and chalcocite (Cu2S) are important sources in the world, and many ore bodies also contain some malachite (CuCO3.Cu(OH)2), azurite …
Abstract. Extraction of copper from sufidic ores, either by pyrometallurgy or hydrometallurgy, has various limitations. In this study, a solvometallurgical process for the extraction of copper from sulfidic ore minerals (chalcopyrite, bornite, chalcocite and digenite) was developed by using an organic lixiviant (FeCl 3 as oxidizing agent and ethylene glycol (EG) as organic solvent).
The effect of time on the leaching of copper oxide ore was investigated at room temperature in the range of 15–240 min. The results are shown in Fig. 1 which indicates that the increase of time on the dissolution of copper oxide ore produced an increase in the dissolution of copper, cobalt and iron. However, it was noticed that the copper ...
This paper provides an overview of hydrometallurgical copper extraction studies in which liquid extraction technology has been used with four copper deposits of different compositions. The sulfuric acid consumption rate and copper extraction efficiency, which are dependent on the initial content and forms of calcium compounds and other impurities in ore …
The copper supply chain is a complex system that involves the extraction, transportation, and processing of copper ore into finished products. Copper is a versatile metal that is used in a wide range of applications, including electrical wiring, plumbing, and construction. As demand for copper continues to grow, the supply chain must adapt to ensure that there is …
The process choice of copper ore flotation is determined by the raw ore properties. Meanwhile, there are many determining factors for the copper ore flotation process, like the mineral disseminated particle size, the associated relationship with quartz rock, and the gangue mineral types.

Zhang et al. [23] studied the process mineralogy of copper ores and found that copper minerals are mainly sulfide minerals that are easily floated, but most of them are embedded at around 0.3 mm, requiring a grinding fineness of 85–90 % −300 mesh to make the copper ore fully dissociated. The study of process mineralogy holds a significant ...
The copper mine industry is facing with the need to process low-grade ores using low-cost technologies to meet global demand unceasingly (Faramarzi et al., 2020).As an economical and environmental friendly method, bioleaching has been exploited to liberate metals, such as copper, iron and nickel, from low-grade ores in some mining area (Panda et al., 2015).
