This re-creation has been broadly revised and up to date because the third version released in 1994. It comprises a good better intensity of commercial info, focussing on how copper steel is extracted from ore and scrap, and the way this extraction might be made extra effective. smooth excessive depth smelting procedures are awarded intimately, particularly flash, Contop, Isasmelt, Noranda, Teniente and direct-to-blister smelting. huge realization is paid to the regulate of SO

This chapterdescribesconcentrating Cu ores. It emphasizes sulfideminerals becausetheyaccountfor almostall Cu concentration. It entails: (a) crushingand grindingthe ore to a size whereits Cu mineralgrainsare dividedfrom itsnon-Cu-mineral grains (b) physical separationof Cu minerals from non-Cu mineralsby froth flotationto formCu rich concentrate andCu barren‘tailing’. Fig. 3 give industrialdata. Copperconcentrators typicallytreat 10 000 to 100 000 tonnesof ore per day, dependingon the rate their mines produceore.
