Opis (eng)

ABSTRACT: This paper presents an investigation of low-grade copper ore leaching using sulphuric acid where dissolved oxygen and iron(III) ions play a role of oxidant. The influence of initial acid concentration on copper and iron extraction was examined. The copper concentration in the leach solution ranged from 0.78 to 1.25 g/dm3, whereas the iron concentration ranged from 1.89 -2.32 g/dm3. It was found that the metal extraction increases with increasing acid concentration. The total copper extraction of 38% was attained with 0.5 M H2SO4 after 180 min of reaction.
