DEVELOPMENT OF A BENEFICIATION TECHNOLOGY FOR MIXED ORE FROM PORPHYRY-COPPER DEPOSITS

This article focuses on the results obtained from laboratory technological studies carried out for the beneficiation of mixed (sulphide-oxide) ores from a porphyry-copper deposit. A selective-bulk flotation flowsheet is developed and presented for the sulphide-oxide copper ores from the porphyry-copper deposit. The technological study results show that the utilisation of useful components is possible and copper and pyrite concentrate production is effective. Finally, conclusions and summaries are presented.
