Copper sulfide ore mineral processing operation
The
flowsheet describing the flotation processing of a copper ore containing
chalcopyrite and
molybdenite
is shown in following figure . After grinding and classification, pulp is fed
to rougher flotation machine.The
rougher tailings are thickened and sent to a tailings dam. The rougher
concentrate is classified,and the oversize is reground. Hydrocyclone overflow is fed to cleaner flotation machine, and the
cleaner concentrate is recleaned. Cleaner tailings are recycled back to rougher
flotation, and the recleaner concentrate is thickened and sent to the
molybdenum recovery plant for further processing. In this operation, the feed
contains 0.32% Cu and 0.03% Mo. Rougher concentrate, cleaner concentrate, and
recleaner concentrate contain 7%–9% Cu, 18% Cu, and 25% Cu, respectively. Recleaner concentrate
also contains 2%–3% Mo.
