Copper (Cu) ore is a naturally occurring mineral deposit that contains copper in varying concentrations. It is an important industrial metal that has been used by human civilizations for thousands of years due to its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, high ductility, and resistance to corrosion. Copper is widely used in various applications, including …

The effect of temperature on leaching behavior of copper minerals with different occurrence states in complex copper oxide ores was carried out by phase analysis means of XRD, optical microscopy ...
Functional classification divides frothers into two groups. The first group are standard frothers, which help to disperse bubbles and form a froth (Grau and Laskowski, 2006, Melo and Laskowski, 2006, Khoshdast and Sam, 2011, Khoshdast et al., 2011).The structure of these frothers consists of one or a few hydroxyl groups and a hydrophobic chain giving these …

At the beginning of experiment, the algal cell yield . Effects of CuSO 4 on algal cells growth. The evolution of cell density can reflect the growth states of M. aeruginosa during exposure (Zhou et al., 2013, Tonietto et al., 2014). To determine the growth of the algal cells, M. aeruginosa was inoculated with three different concentrations of ...
Generally, the most amount of copper loss to tailings (about 90%) with a grade of about 0.1%, occurs in the rougher circuit. It should be noted that the tonnage of rougher circuit tailings is on ...
The studies showed that the MW treatment affects the flotation behaviour of copper sulfide ores by a phase change in the boundary of chalcopyrite with gangue minerals during radiation (Marion et ...
The bubble–particle attachment time measurements were performed using a sized fraction from concentrates obtained at different times and tails by flotation of a copper–gold sulphide ore ...
Effect of calcium and thiosulfate ions on flotation of a Ni–Cu ore was investigated. The ions improved the flotability of sulfides at the normal process pH after grinding in steel mill.
The selected factors have a significant impact on the final result of copper ore flotation in the Jameson cell and therefore it was a reason to generate additional models of copper recovery and ...
The results showed that the presence of particularly bentonite in the ore had a detrimental effect on flotation and filtration.
