Copper extraction refers to the methods used to obtain copper from its ores.The conversion of copper consists of a series of physical and electrochemical processes. Methods have evolved and vary with country depending on the ore source, local environmental regulations, and other factors.. As in all mining operations, the ore must usually be beneficiated (concentrated).
Rio Tinto’s Kennecott Utah Copper Company (KUCC), is the second largest copper producer in the United States currently providing 25% of all U.S. copper supply. Located in the Salt Lake City Valley, KUCC has been in operation for 108 years. They have produced more copper—19 million tons—than any other mine in the world.

valuable mineral. Any change in the ball mill discharge immediately affects recovery. As the ore grade varies from 0.5 to 0.8% Cu whenever plant is running with lowest grade, improving the grade of concentrate becomes very difficult. In that case over feeding the ball mill is required to get the grade of concentrate. As the pyrite con-

The Mount Isa Copper Concentrator was commissioned in 1973. In 1991, two autogenous grinding mills were installed replacing two stages of crushing, one stage of rod milling and one stage of primary ball milling. The cyclone overflow P80 of the secondary ball milling circuit was reduced to 120 microns due to the increased operating power in the AG/SAG mill circuits.
