Copper Ore Processing Methods. The four major steps in the production of marketable copper are mining, concentrating, smelting, and refining. In a few instances, however, leaching takes the place of concentrating, smelting, and refining. At present, although considerable leaching and direct-smelting ores are produced, the bulk of the copper ore ...
Mining is predominantly conventional shovel-and-truck open pit with an underground mine at Katinniq. The first open pit mine in Zone 2, had a stripping ratio of 4:1 and benches in waste are 10m high while those in the ore are 5m high. Underground mining uses a single-pass mechanised cut-and-fill method in 8–10m-wide by 5m-high panels.
