Minimizing of copper losses to converter slag by a boron compound addition

In copper production, the concentrate obtained after ore-flotation follows by pyrometallurgical route; Smelting, Converting and Fire Refining stages to obtain the anode plates. In this production process, a significant amount of copper (4–8 %Cu) goes to converter slag (CS) which is the most serious...
