Mu et al. reported a process for synchronous extraction of nickel and copper from a mixed oxide-sulfide nickel ore in a low-temperature roasting system. In this process, sodium sulfate was used as an additive for improving the extraction of nickel by converting into Na-pyrosulfate, and more than 97% of nickel could be extracted after roasting ...

In contrast, gold extraction from the oxide ore in a solution containing 20 g/L iodide and 4 g/L iodine reached 89% in 24 h. Iodate as the oxidant could not leach any gold in 48 h. Iodine reactions with the sulfide and the ferrous minerals of ore are the main consumers of iodine in solution.
Some employ a coupled course of relatively simple sulphide ore and high valence manganese oxide, such as coupled leaching of FeS 2 –MnO 2, ZnS–MnO 2, Bi 2 S 3 –MnO 2, and so on [[21], [22], [23]]. However, there is little research on the coupled leaching of low-grade multi-metallic manganese oxide and sulfide ore.

The whole experimental procedure is depicted in Fig. 1 including the process of Zn extraction from mixed ore ( Jia et al., 2016 ; Liu et al., 2016 ) and Pb extraction from PbO 2 -containing …
The method used to extract copper from its ores depends on the nature of the ore. Sulfide ores such as chalcopyrite ( CuFeS2 C u F e S 2) are converted to copper by a different method from silicate, carbonate or sulfate ores. Chalcopyrite (also known as copper pyrites) and similar sulfide ores are the commonest ores of copper.
The scheme of metasomatosis and transformation of sulfide ore concentrations into oxide mineralization is the same for liquation and late magmatic deposits. It is presented in Fig. 11 as a variant for late magmatic ore concentrations. The sulfide melt is formed by condensation of sulfur after solidification of the intrusive (see …
In contrast, oxide ores consist of metal oxides – compounds in which a metal is combined with oxygen. These ores are often located closer to the surface and can be accessed via open-pit mining ...

There are two main copper ore types of interest, copper oxide ores and copper sulfide ores. Both ore types can be economically mined, however, the most common source of copper ore is the sulfide ...
The major chemical components of the sulfide refractory gold ore and pyrite are shown in Table 2. The sulfide refractory gold ore (SRGO) contains 30.34% Fe, 22.23% S, 11.19% As, 3.24% Al and 60.25 g/t Au. The total content of Fe, As and S is up to 63% of the sulfide refractory gold ore. The pyrite contains 43.36% Fe and 41.26% S.
1. In terms of ore composition, copper sulfide ore is relatively complex, while the composition of copper oxide ore is relatively simple; 2. In terms of price, copper oxide ore is relatively cheap, but the cost of beneficiation agents is high; 3. The oxidation rate of ores is different, the oxidation rate of sulfide ore is lower than 30%, and the oxidation …
2.1.1 Crystal structure of copper sulfides. Copper sulfide ore, which accounts for 80% of the copper resource, is the major source for the metallic copper [1 ]. The major copper sulfide ores contain chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2 ), bornite (Cu 5 FeS 4 ), covellite (CuS), and chalcocite (Cu 2 S). The concentrates of copper from sulfides ores are ...
Many investigators have studied the kinetics of roasting of metal sulfides. By and large, roasting of zinc sulfide is carried out at and above 800 °C to produce zinc oxide [2ZnS (s) + 3O 2 (g) = 2ZnO (s) + 2SO 2 (g)]. This is known as dead roasting. The rate of oxidation is very slow at 700 °C.
The low-grade nickel-copper sulfide-oxide ore (for short as "the ore" in the following section) adopted in this study was supplied by Jinchuan Group Co., Ltd, China. The rock ore samples were crushed by a jaw crusher and following a double-rolling grinder to pass-through a vibrating screen with different standard sieves, then the ore with ...
