Hydrometallurgy is used for copper recovery for more than 300 years. Already in 1670 the mine waters were treated with iron to precipitate copper. However, two hundred years were needed to process oxide ores by vat leaching and copper cementation with iron. The development most important to copper hydrometallurgy, both with respect to the

Copper ore beneficiation methods. Before the beneficiation of copper ores, crushing and grinding are required. The bulk ores are crushed to about 12cm by a jaw crusher or a cone crusher. Then the crushed materials are sent to the grinding equipment, and the final particle size of the copper ore is reduced to 0.15-0.2mm.
