Alena opens describing the heap leaching process for copper: Copper ore is excavated from the ground, crushed and then spread in uniform layers on a pad. A slow trickle of sulfuric acid is distributed over the pile, where it percolates to the bottom and a collection point. The acid leaches out the copper, along with other minerals, which can be ...

Harichandan and Mandre 13 used sulfuric acid with concentrations of 1 M and 3 M for the leaching of a mixed oxide-sulfide copper ore containing 67.19% SiO 2 and considered the concentration of 1 M as the optimal acid concentration. They concluded that the leaching efficiency increased with increasing the leaching time to 120 min, and it was almost constant …

This paper studies the process mineralogy, mechanism, and kinetics of column leaching behavior of low-grade high-calcium–magnesium copper ore. The effect of sulfuric acid concentration, leach solution spraying intensity, and material particle size on column leaching kinetics is discussed. The kinetic analysis of column leaching of copper indicates that sulfuric …
