The composition of the mineral raw materials of the Udokan copper deposit has been studied. It is established that the copper minerals antlerite and brochantite are represented both in the form of ordinary and crystal hydrate forms, the properties of which are reflected in the flotation process. Studies were carried out on sulfide, mixed and oxidized samples of ores from the Udokan deposit. A unified flotation scheme for processing such ores with the production of sulfide and mixed copper concentrate with subsequent hydro- and pyrometallurgical methods is recommended.
The objects of research are sulfide, mixed and oxidized copper ores of the Udokan deposit.
The subject of the study is the technology of processing copper ores.
Research objectives:
– study of the mineral, material, and chemical composition of copper ores of the Udokan deposit;
– study of existing technologies for processing copper ores;
– conducting laboratory experiments on sulfide, mixed and oxidized ore samples of the Udokan deposit;
– recommendation of a unified enrichment scheme for all types of copper ores of the Udokan deposit.
Research methods. The work was carried out on the basis of studying the available sources on the occurrence, composition and structure of copper ores of the Udokan deposit, methods of their processing. In the course of laboratory studies, a flotation method of mineral enrichment was used with the use of operations to stabilize the energy state of the dispersed system (with Eh control) and subsequent electrochemical treatment of the pulp.
The authors emphasize that the recommended scheme for processing copper ores from the Udokan deposit will optimize the processing technology and increase the efficiency of mining this deposit. Hydro- and pyrometallurgical methods are the most optimal for processing the obtained sulfide and mixed concentrates |
