2017-4-11 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

Azurite: a kind of copper oxide ore Flotation method Flotation is one of the commonly used mineral processing techniques for copper oxide ores. According to ...
Read MoreExtraction and refining. The extraction of copper from ore is normally carried out in three major steps. The first step, mineral processing, is to liberate the copper minerals and remove waste constituents—such as alumina, limestone, pyrite, and silica—so that the copper minerals and other nonferrous minerals of value are concentrated into a product containing between 20 and 30 percent copper.

Read More2016-6-21 The resulting copper mixture is called concentrate, which is a grey-black powder that looks a bit like ash. It is roughly 30% copper, and may also contain traces of gold and silver. The copper concentrate then goes to a smelter, where it undergoes
Read MoreCopper ore flotation process line machine copper processing . The main mineral types of copper oxide ore include malachite, malachite, azurite, cuprite, black copper, cholesteric, water cholesteric, copper oxide, and the like. Among them, malachite and azurite are relatively soluble to other ores and can be recovered by direct flotation or ...

Read MoreThe 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.

It is also the oldest metal known to man and was first discovered and used about 10,000 years ago. And as alloyed in bronze (copper-tin alloy) about 3000 BC, was the first engineering material known to man.
