the process used to concentrate chalcopyrite ore

: A Review on Novel Techniques for Chalcopyrite Ore

2012-1-1 1.2. Chalcopyrite Ore Production The sulfide ore minerals including chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2), sphalerite (ZnS), galena (PbS) provide the major sources of the world’s base metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, respectively), whereas pyrite is virtually ubiquitous as a metalliferous mineral in sulfide ore deposits (Crang and Vanghan, 1994).The first step in recovering metal from their mineral is that of finding ...

2017-11-10 Chalcopyrite ore was obtained from the Quebrada Blanca mine in northern Chile. The ore contained 0.52% copper, with > 95% of that copper being present as chalcopyrite.Prior to use, the ore was crushed to − 13 mm, resulting in a P 80 of 11.4 mm and a fines (− 150 μm) content of 4%. Table 1 details the chemical composition and mineralogy of the chalcopyrite ore sample.

2019-2-6 This article presents a copper leaching process from chalcopyrite concentrates using a low-pressure reactor. The experiments were carried out in a 30 L batch reactor at an oxygen pressure of 1 kg/cm2 and solid concentration of 100 g/L. The temperature, particle size and initial acid concentration were varied based on a Taguchi L9 experimental design.
