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 low grade copper ore and what are the problems associated with it?
Low-grade copper ore contains a small amount of copper (1% or lower) and a big amount of waste rock. The problem with low-grade copper is that it breaks down and melts more easily than copper ore.
What is the problem with us using low grade ore as a copper source?
Using low-grade ore as a copper source can be problematic because it requires more energy and resources to extract the copper from the ore. This leads to increased environmental impact and higher costs of production compared to using higher-grade ore. Additionally, the extraction process may produce more waste and emissions, impacting local ecosystems and communities.
What happens if water is added to a copper ore?
The copper will explode ??? * it gets wet * the copper ore goes through several stages of hydration as the water is absorbed, changing its crystal structure. This is a form of structural change but I've never seen it explode.
What is a mineral called when it is considered valuable and can be made into something such as steel?
A mineral that is considered valuable and can be used to make products such as steel is called an ore. Ores contain high concentrations of valuable minerals that can be extracted and processed to extract the desired element or metal. Examples of ores include iron ore, which is used to make steel, and copper ore, which is used to make copper.
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 low grade copper ore and what are the problems associated with it?

Where do you extract copper?
Copper Ore.
What is the problem with using low grade ore as a copper source?
It is very hard and very expensive to remove the copper from that ore.
What does low-grade ore mean?
Low-grade ore refers to mineral deposits containing a lower amount of valuable materials compared to high-grade ore. This means that more material needs to be processed to extract the desired minerals, making it less economically viable to mine.
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
Is copper obtained from copper ore pure?
After the initial smelting to extract copper from the ore it still has to go through electroplating purification.
What is the problem using low grade ore as a copper source?
The metal (copper) extracted may be generally brittle and break easily.
Describe the method of purification of copper?
The method used to extract Cu from its ore depends on the nature of the ore.
What is a high grade ore?
It's an ore that doesn't contain a very high proportion of valuable minerals. The term could also be applied to richer ores containing large amounts of undesirable impurities, arsenic for example. Low-grade ores are less valuable than higher-grade ones. Also, recovery rates for low grade ores tend to be lower than for high grade ores - that is, a lower percentage of the total amount of metal in the ore is extracted successfully. The definition of low-grade depends on the resource in question. For copper, low grade ores have less than 1% copper. For gold, an ore having 1% gold by mass would be considered (very) high-grade, as gold is more valuable than copper.
What are the uses of ORe?
Ore, as in rocks which contain sufficient metal to extract and it is economical to do so. Ores include bauxite, a copper ore. Ores can be used to extract precious metals which in turn can be used for electrical wiring, in the case of copper or as a catalyst, in the case of Haematite, Iron ore (the haber process).
