Oxidic ore can be concentrated using flotation or, if it has a low acid demand, it may be economic to acid heap leach the stockpile The recovery of these copper minerals by flotation orIn some sulphide ores of copper, zinc and lead, the concentration is brought by froth flotation process In this method, the advantage is taken of the preferential wetting of the ore by an oil The finely ground ore is taken in a tank containing water and 1% of pine oil or turpentine oilConcentration Of Ores Questions and Answers Toppr2021 4 2 When reviewing Methods of Eliminating Copper from Gold Ores we see that several methods have been suggested to eliminate copper from ores prior to cyanidation Preliminary extraction of the copper with sulphuric or sulphurous acids may be applicable to ores containing oxidized copper minerals such as malachite, azurite and chrysocolla but these acids have but little effect on sulphide copper Eliminating Copper from Gold OreBoth ores require roasting – heating in air – before they are ready to be reduced This step can be modelled in the classroom by the thermal decomposition of copper carbonate into copper oxide (rscli/2rsYsX5) before proceeding to reduce with carbon (rscli/2sY6bNb)The extraction of metals CPD RSC Educationconcentration of copper oxide ore processing Concentration of copper oxide ores usa concentration of oxide copper ores by oxide copper ores in subdivided form may be concentrated in a flotation separation process by slurrying said ores in an aqueous solution of a flotation reagent followed by generating gas bubbles in the slurry to float the oxide copper and recovering the concentrated oxide copper from the concentration of copper oxide ore processing

The amount of copper in an ore can vary from 04 percent to more than 12 percent Porphyry copper deposits, in which the copper materials are more or less uniformly scattered throughout the rock, account for the greatest tonnage of metal in the producing areas of the world The copper minerals in the upper portions of such deposits are in general oxides (copper chemically combined with oxygen), those in This is related as: 1) iron sulphide mineral levels are usually much higher than copper concentration, 2) sulphide flotation collectors can float iron sulphides well also, 3) liberation can be an issue making copper and iron separation difficult, and 4) fine particles are often more difficult to separateCopper ores Danafloat2008 12 16 In contrast, oxide ores are processed directly to impure black copper ( 95 wt % Cu) and to a copperrich slag The two ore types can be smelted together to produce matte and a slag with low copper content Another product is top gas, which contains flue dust Ores that contain high concentrations of arsenic andCOPPER Copper production Repository2015 7 26 Let's look at the oxidation states of everything In the copper (I) sulphide, the copper is +1 and the sulphur 2 The oxidation states of the elements oxygen (in the gas) and copper (in the metal) are 0 In sulphur dioxide, the oxygen has an oxidation state of 2 and the sulphur +4copper extraction and purification chemguide2009 8 27 year, and this ore is treated through a conventional crushing, milling and flotation plant The ore mineralogy permits the production of a high grade concentrate containing 38–40% copper, and this concentrate is blended with lower copper, higher iron concentrates from other mines on the copperbelt, and treatedProcessing of Konkola copper concen trates and Chingola refractory ore

2019 9 26 Copper is typically extracted from oxide and sulfide ores that contain between 05 and 20% copper The refining techniques employed by copper producers depend on the ore type, as well as other economic and environmental factorsIn some sulphide ores of copper, zinc and lead, the concentration is brought by froth flotation process In this method, the advantage is taken of the preferential wetting of the ore by an oil The finely ground ore is taken in a tank containing water and 1% of pine oil or turpentine oilConcentration Of Ores Questions and Answers Toppr2021 4 5 Gold processing Gold processing Mining and concentrating: The nature of the ore deposit determines the mining and mineral processing techniques applied Oxide ore deposits are frequently of such low grade (eg, 3 to 10 parts per million) that extensive mineral processing cannot economically be justified In this case they are merely shattered by explosives and then piled into Gold processing Mining and concentrating BritannicaAfter concentration of ores, we must now extract metal from in it This step will give us metal in its pure form ie the native form of metal First, we must convert the ore to a suitable form The metals need to be in an oxide form for the reduction process to be easier Hence the ores are converted to oxides, so it is ideal for reductionExtraction of Metals from Concentrated Ore: Reduction
