Copper Ore Introduction

Copper ore is generally oxygen or sulfur, and sulfuric acid reaction of blue-green copper sulfate. Copper has a wide variety of natural copper color. Bornite copper was dark red, blue-violet oxidation becomes patchy; Lead-gray chalcocite; Copper blue is indigo; Tetrahedrite is a steel gray; Blue copper is bright blue. The world's proven copper reserves of about 6 million tons, reserves of most countries are Chile, accounting for about one-third of the world's reserves.

Ore Concentration process:

Usually, flotation process is adopted for copper or beneficiation.

Common equipment used for Copper Oxide ore Concentration Process

Equipment commonly used for copper ore processing includes: Jaw crusher, fine crusher, ball mill, electronic feeder, spiral classifier, mixing tank, flotation machine.

The models for each machine is based on production capacity.

Concentration Process for Copper Oxide Ore Selecting:

1. Crushing and Grinding stage
The extracted ore should be crushed by jaw crusher initially and then by fine crusher. When it gets the reasonable fineness, it is transported into ball mill by elevating conveyer and feeder, and is milled by ball mill.

2. Classifying stage
The subtle milled ore gets the next procedure: Classification. There is a theory that if the weights of solid particles are different, the sedimentations will be different, and the mixed ore can be classified by screw classifier.

3. Mixing and Floatation stage
The classified ore gets into mixing tank for fully mixing. At this stage, chemical agent for foam can be added. After fully mixing, the slurry will enter into flotation machine.

When the floatation machine works, the motor drives the impeller to revolve, so the centrifugal effect and negative pressure are produced. On one hand, ample air is absorbed and mixed with mineral slurry, on the other hand, the mixed mineral slurry is mingled with additive, meanwhile, the foams are thinning, the mineral is bounded with foams, and floats up to the surface of mineral slurry and the mineralized foam is formed. The liquid surface can be adjusted with the height of adjustment flashboard, so that the useful foams are scraped with squeegee.

4. Concentrator thickening and drying
Then copper concentrate is separated from others. Since the separated ore are wet, they should be dewatered by thicker initially, and dried by dryer.
