While iron is a pivotal metal that is exploited commercially, its extraction from ores, subsequent processing and purification follows a series of steps, and material characterization in terms of physical, chemical and mineralogical features and behavior is imperative at each stage. Some characterization tests rely solely on physical measurements, while others are based on …
Introduction. The first report in this recurring series on microbial processes in the minerals industries was published in 2003 (Olson et al. 2003), followed by an update after 10 years (Brierley and Brierley 2013) with bioleaching and biooxidation of sulfide minerals, primarily copper (in the case of bioleaching) and refractory gold ores (biooxidation) matured to …
Iron Ore: Mineralogy, Processing and Environmental Sustainability, Second Edition covers all aspects surrounding the second most important commodity behind oil. As an essential input for the production of crude steel, iron ore feeds the world's largest trillion-dollar-a-year metal market and is the backbone of the global infrastructure. The book explores new ore types and …

The main raw material is copper sulfide ore, and high-grade copper oxide ore can also be smelted in the pyrometallurgical process. The mining grade of copper sulfide is 0.3–2%, and the average mining grade is approximately 0.81%. The mined ore is crushed and pulverized. Then flotation will separate the copper sulfide concentrate.
