4. Beneficiation of Copper Ore. The next step in processing is called beneficiation. This is the first step in concentrating the copper into a more useable form. 5. Smelting and Extraction. The next step in the process flow is smelting for sulfide ore concentrate and solvent extraction for oxide ore leach solution. 6.

Once a concentrate has been produced containing copper and other metals of value (such as gold and silver), the next step is to remove impurity elements. In older processes the concentrate, containing between 5 and 10 percent water, is first roasted in a cylindrical, refractory-lined furnace of either the hearth or fluidized-bed type. As concentrate is fed into the roaster, it is heated by a

Copper Ore Processing Methods. The four major steps in the production of marketable copper are mining, concentrating, smelting, and refining. In a few instances, however, leaching takes the place of concentrating, smelting, and refining. At present, although considerable leaching and direct-smelting ores are produced, the bulk of the copper ore

We shall begin by looking at the mining and processing of the copper bearing ore, followed by an examination of an established and a modern copper smelting process. Mining for Copper Bearing Ore. There are two categories of copper ore; sulphide ore which is processed to enrich it before smelting, and oxide ore that is subjected to acid treatment.

Early Smelting Practice. Virtually all the ore used by the ancients was handpicked with only the most worthwhile material being taken. Originally it was probably smelted by the Sumerians in shallow pits using charcoal as the fuel. How they first derived the necessary draught to raise the temperature sufficiently to melt the ore is still a

Copper was initially recovered from sulfide ores by directly smelting the ore in a furnace. The smelters were initially located near the mines to minimize the cost of transport. This avoided the prohibitive costs of transporting the waste minerals and the sulfur and iron present in the copper-containing minerals.

Sulfide and Oxide Copper Ores. Nearly all copper ores of the sulfide type such as chalcocite, chalcopyrite, and covellite are treated through the well-known process of smelting. After the ore is crushed to powder, it is treated with froth flotation, whereby the powder reacts with reagents that treat the copper to make it hydrophobic.

During smelting, copper will be extracted from the malachite ore. The efficiency of our smelting process will be determined by calculating the copper yield: the percent of copper in the ore that was extracted by the smelt. Before coming to class, calculate the amount of copper in each crucible charge.
