Effect of activated carbon on the absorption of copper and iron ions in the bioleaching of primary copper sulfide ore

Study on the effect of ferric ion on bacterial leaching of low-grade primary copper sulfide ores;

The primary sulphides should preferably be treated by the same process plant however,the treatment of the primary sulphides is often associated with increases in operational cost,a lower metal recovery or a major capital investment to change the original flowsheet in order to treat these primary sulphides.
