What is the difference between a copper rich ore and a low grade ore?
Copper rich ores contain Relatively large amount of copper. Copper obtained from rich ores is from better quality than low-grade ores. A low-grade ore doesn't contain very high proportion of valuable copper
What is the difference between Copper- rich ores and Low - grade ores?
Copper rich ores contain Relatively large amount of copper. Copper obtained from rich ores is from better quality than low-grade ores. A low-grade ore doesn't contain very high proportion of valuable copper
What is the problem with using low-grade ores as a copper source?
Low-grade ores contain lower concentrations of copper, which means more material needs to be processed to extract the same amount of copper compared to high-grade ores. This can result in higher production costs, energy consumption, and environmental impact.
What are 4 different types of mining?
Surface mining: extracting minerals or ores from the surface of the Earth. Underground mining: extracting minerals or ores from beneath the Earth's surface. Placer mining: extracting minerals or ores from rivers, streams, or other sediment deposits. Submarine mining: extracting minerals or ores from the seabed.
What is copper phytomining?
The world is running out of rich copper ores. Research is being carried out to find new ways to extract copper from the remaining low-grade ores, without harming the environment too much. This research is very important, as traditional mining involves huge open-cast mines that produce a lot of waste rock.Some plants absorb copper through their roots. As a result of this they concentrate these compounds as a result of this. The plants can be burned to produce an ash that contains the copper compounds. This process is known as photomining.
What are ores of copper?
the ores of copper are chalcopyrite .malachite .azurite. and native copper.
What are the problems associated with using low grade ores?
It's poor quality and not all the copper can be extraxted from it
Why is recycling copper better than extracting copper ores?
First, you don't have to mine, which alters the landscape and the habitat of animals. Then, from an economical stand point, it is cheaper to recycle a metal than to mine it, process it and so on.
What rock contain enough metal to make it worth extracting?
Rock containing metal is known as ore - iron ore, copper ore, and so on. As to being worth extracting, depends on the richness of the metal deposits.
What is the ores of copper?
Ores of copper(Cu) are: -Chalcopyrite -Malachite -Azurite Native copper can also be found.
Where are places for extracting metals and chemicals?
Mineral ores,coal
How is copper usually found in nature?
i think they mine itCopper is usually found in nature in association with sulfur. Pure copper metal is generally produced from a multistage process, beginning with the mining and concentrating of low-grade ores containing copper sulfide minerals, and followed by smelting and electrolytic refining to produce a pure copper cathode. An increasing share of copper is produced from acid leaching of oxidized ores. Nearly as much copper is recovered from recycled material as is derived from newly mined ore.
