Processing of the copper ore is realized in the enrichment plant of Fushe-Arrëz which lies north of the town of Fushe-Arrëz. At the plant are treated copper ore from two mines Munella and Lak Roshi with grade which varies from 0.9-2% Cu. Recovery in the plant is at the range 84-86% for a copper concentrate with grade 18-20% Cu.

Commercially exploited deposits of copper ores are found in many parts of the world, frequently associated with mountain-building processes. Deposits occur at many locations in the western cordillera of the Americas, mainly in the United States and Chile, and in areas of the North American plains like Michigan, Ontario, Quebec and Manitoba, at sites associated with the Pre-Cambrian shield

Extracting copper from other ores. Copper can be extracted from non-sulphide ores by a different process involving three separate stages: Reaction of the ore (over quite a long time and on a huge scale) with a dilute acid such as dilute sulphuric acid to produce a very dilute copper(II) sulphate solution.

The process used to treat sulfide copper ores begins at the mine site, where the copper-bearing minerals are physically separated from the rest of the rock. The flow diagram below shows how the percentage of copper increases as the ore is refined, first physically by froth flotation, then chemically by smelting and finally electrolytic refining. The smelting stage gives the name pyroprocessing

Before the beneficiation of copper ores, crushing and grinding are required. The bulk ores are crushed to about 12cm by a jaw crusher or a cone crusher. Then the crushed materials are sent to the grinding equipment, and the final particle size of the copper ore is reduced to 0.15-0.2mm. Copper ore crushing process. 1.

With the gradual decrease in the grade of copper ores being processed, copper concentrates have become more complex with higher impurity and gangue content. This trend has had a detrimental effect on smelters as they have to increase throughput to maintain copper metal production, while increasing operating costs due to processing the increased amounts of secondary products (slag, acid) and

Oxidic ores are treated with sulfuric acid in a heap leaching process after the grinding stage and are subsequently processed into cathode copper by SX/EW methods. On a worldwide scale, concentrate production dominates with a market share of about 85 %. In the production of gold, the cyanide leaching or CIL (carbon-in-leach) processes have gained a market share of almost 90 %. For the

Copper Ore Processing Methods. 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 ore

In most cases, the thin-layer process was used where crushed ores (80% −0.5 in) were stacked in heaps of 3–8 m height after agglomeration and sprayed at flow rates of 6–40 L·hour −1 ·m −2 with 15–90 days duration for copper oxides and 10–18 months for sulfides. Of note, 80%–85% copper extraction was commonly achieved.

In addition to processing copper ores, new and old copper scrap or copper alloys can be melted, re-purified, and recycled into new components. It is estimated that such recycling supplies 50% of copper used in the copper industry (Scott, 2011). In 2010, 770,000 metric tons of copper were recycled, at an estimated value of nearly six billion dollars (Papp, 2010).

Nowadays the production of copper from low-grade ores is the most important industrial application and a significant part of world copper production already originates from heap or dump/stockpile bioleaching. Conceptual differences exist between the industrial processes of bioleaching and biooxidation. Bioleaching is a conversion of an insoluble valuable metal into a soluble form by means of
