Abstract. Non-sulfide zinc deposits were the prime source for zinc metal production for hundreds of years. However, during the early 20th century, their significance diminished due to the development of flotation and smelting techniques for zinc sulfides. At the present time, zinc sulfide ores are the most significant source of zinc, accounting ...

About 80% of the worldly copper production from ores has its origin in Cu–Fe–S minerals. Cu–Fe–S minerals are not easily dissolved by aqueous solution, so the vast majority of copper extraction from these minerals is pyrometallurgical. More than 67% of the world copper production originated from porphyry copper ores [1], [2]. These …

Pyrometallurgy is an extractive metallurgy field that uses high-temperature techniques to extract and purify metals, alloys, or mattes from primary ores and/or secondary resources. Because operating temperatures frequently near 1500°C, pyrometallurgical processes are difficult, high-risk, and energy-intensive.

About 80% of the world's primary copper is produced by concentration, smelting, and refining of sulfide ores. The other 20% is produced by heap leaching, solvent extraction, and electrowinning of oxidized and chalcocite ores. Secondary copper production from recycled end-of-use objects is 15%–20% of primary copper production.

A basic principle of many processes for extracting copper and nickel from sulphide ores is to overlay the molten ore or matte with a lime–silica–iron oxide slag and blow with air or oxygen. Some of the iron present in the ore oxidises and, as a result, partitions to the slag phase, while some of the sulphur is carried off as sulphur dioxide.
