Thus, the feed to the rougher bank is a blend of the fresh and CST feeds. The grades of the rougher and CST feeds are 0.24 and 0.32 %Cu, respectively, while the volumetric and mass flow rates of the CST feed are 22 and 11.6 %, respectively. One can then back-calculate the grade of the freshly mined copper ore to be 0.23 %Cu from mass balance.

بیشترGrab-sampling by an interested party, at its best, is only a prejudiced conjecture, while at its worst it gives rise to the most unscrupulous practices with which the ore-producer and the mining-investor have to deal. Shovel-sampling, another archaic method which is still used in some localities, consists in throwing out from the car or …
بیشترSmelting of roasted (calcine feed) or unroasted (green feed) ore concentrate produces matte, a molten mixture of copper sulfide (Cu2S), iron sulfide (FeS), and some heavy metals. Converting the matte yields a high-grade "blister" copper, with 98.5 to 99.5 percent copper. Typically, blister copper is then fire-refined in an anode furnace, cast into
بیشترThis means that 95.7% of the copper present in the ore was recovered in the concentrate, while the rest was lost in the tailings. (c) The % Cu Loss can be calculated by subtracting the % Cu Recovery from 100%: % Cu Loss = 100 – 95.7 = 4.3% This means that 4.3% of the copper present in the ore was lost in the tailings.

Here also need to use an auxiliary equipment – classifier. It can classify and screen copper ore and release copper ore powder that meets the requirements. 3.
بیشترUse of sensors to identify key indicators of domain changes as ore enters the process. The key to dealing with feed variability is to understand the ore domains within the resource and how they may affect processing. Ideally, this would take the form of a geometallurgical model for the resource and mine planning that accounts for metallurgical ...
