testing copper ore

Copper Ore - an overview ScienceDirect Topics

Recent laboratory testing on a copper–gold ore containing pyrite showed that Aerofloat 7249 achieved the highest gold recovery (Forrest et al., 2001). Aerofloat 6697 provided the best gold concentrate grade at pH values 11.5, and gold grades in excess of 250 g/t were ...

Chemical tests for the metal content of various ores

2010-6-14  Copper: Copper is a very easy mineral to test for. First crush the ore and dissolve it in nitric acid by heating. Then dilute with some water, and add ammonia. The solution should turn dark blue. The carbonate ores of copper do not extend deep in the mine. Their places are taken by copper pyrites.

How to assay and evaluate silver, copper and lead ores

2010-6-14  Identifying Ores of Silver, Copper and Lead. Silver is generally found in serpentine, trap, sandstone, limestone, shale, or porphyry rocks, the gangue being quartz, calc, fluorite, or barite. All silver ores are heavy, and many of them are sectile, i.e., may be cut with the knife. Western men test for silver by heating the ore and dipping it ...

The test result is the mg/L free copper in the sample. • After the read step, add a Hydrosulfite Reagent Powder Pillow to the same sample, wait 2 minutes and read the result. The test result after the addition of both reagents is total dissolved copper. • To determine the mg/L of complexed copper, subtract the mg/L free copper from the
