Copper can be extracted from non-sulphide ores by a different process involving three separate stages: Reaction of the ore (over quite a long time and on a huge scale) with a dilute acid such as dilute sulphuric acid to produce a very dilute copper (II) sulphate solution. Concentration of the copper (II) sulphate solution by solvent extraction.
DetailsJul 09, 2019· 1 Types of copper sulfide ore. (1) Single copper mineral Its ore characteristic is relatively simple, and the only useful component that can be recycled is copper. The gangue minerals are mainly quartz, carbonate and silicate. (2) Copper-sulfur ore Called copper-bearing pyrite. In addition to copper minerals, iron sulfide can be …
DetailsMay 13, 2019· The aim of the study was to create a complex simulation model of the belt conveyor-based transport system of an actual Polish copper mine. The model was parameterized with the mined orebody data (lithology and quality), mining schedules, the operational time of vehicles supplying the ore from mining fields, the velocities of the …
Details3.2 System characterisation and simulation results. The copper ore production process operation as defined in Section 3.1 is simulated for a period of one year with various failure modes. The time evolution of the cumulative cost curves and copper output for 100 Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are shown in Figure 5 for easier visualisation. More MC …
DetailsFeb 24, 2022· After the air is brought up through the water, bubbles form that float the water-repellent copper particles to the surface of the water. This separates out the froth which has 30% copper, 27% iron, and 33% sulfur. The flotation process gets rid of impurities in the ore, where there may also be lead and other vital metals in our society …
DetailsJan 01, 2013· Schematic structure of the automatic control system for grinding process of copper-molybdenum ore: 1 ± control system for ore feed to the mill; 2 ± control system for water feed to the mill; 3 ± control system for water feed to the sump; 4 ± sump pulp level control system; 5 ± mill drum loading measuring system; 6 ± mill drive wattage ...
DetailsApr 09, 2010· Modern copper smelters use processed copper ore fed into a flash furnace, typically fired by oxygen which produces blister copper, being further processed in a converter furnace. Molten copper is poured from here into rectangular moulds, the resulting ingots subjected to electrolysis producing a metal of 99.9% purity. Copper can be …
DetailsA process for the extraction of copper from a copper ore or concentrate comprises first subjecting the ore or concentrate to agitation leaching at an elevated temperature and pressure in the presence of oxygen and water to obtain a resulting acidic leach liquor which contains dissolved copper. The acidity of the resulting acidic leach liquor is then reduced …
DetailsThe Basics of Copper Mining and Processing. Mined from open pits, copper ore must be crushed as part of the process that occurs between extraction and production. Using today's compact mining equipment, copper ore is extracted from the mine. After the ore is crushed, it's roasted, which helps to convert sulfides to oxides.
DetailsJul 20, 2022· In the flotation process of copper ore, the beneficiation reagent is an important factor that determines the flotation effect. It is one of the main research directions of mineral processing workers to explore a new copper flotation process and develop new cost-effective and environmentally friendly reagents to improve the utilization rate of ...
DetailsIn the flotation process, the finely ground ore, mixed with water and special reagents, is agitated by mechanical and pneumatic devices. These produce air bubbles in the ore-water mixture, or slurry. The reagents provide an attraction between the surface of the copper minerals and the air bubbles. As the bubbles rise to the surface, they carry ...
DetailsThis invention relates to a process whereby recovery of copper from copper ores using leaching and solvent extraction techniques can be increased. The process generally comprises leaching to obtain a pregnant leach liquor, washing ore residues with an extra quantity of water to obtain extra dissolved copper values, recovering said copper …
DetailsNov 28, 2020· The article presents research on the comminution of copper ore in a self-constructed mill using high-pressure water jet energy to investigate the usefulness of such a method for comminuting copper ore. As a result, ore particles are obtained that are characterized by appropriate comminution and a significant increase in their specific …
DetailsNov 10, 2021· An important copper ore mine was discovered in the 1970s, in Recsk, Northern Hungary city. Unhappily, as soon as the roadways were completed the project was drape, because of the reducing price of copper in the international market. The determination of the Outokumpu copper ore deposit in North Karelia was an era-creating …
