The leaching and passivation of chalcopyrite in acid sulfate media
Sulfate-based leaching processes for chalcopyrite (CuFeSa) are attractive because of their inherent simplicity. Unfortunately, high copper extractions are not attainable in a reasonable residence time unless the leaching temperature exceeds 200°C (oxygen pressure leaching) or chalcopyrite is &quo...
