Leaching of Oxide Copper Ores by Addition of Weak Acid from Copper Smelters

Leaching of Oxide Copper Ores by Addition of Weak Acid from Copper Smelters

In this study, weak acid in the curing and leaching stages of copper ore was incorporated, and we analyzed its effect on the dissolution of copper and final impurities. The weak acid corresponds to a wastewater effluent from sulfuric acid plants produced in the gas treatment of copper smelting proce...
