Copper Mining and Processing: Processing of Copper Ores ...
The bubbles break and solids from the froth solution settle at the bottom of the tank. The solids are then filtered to remove excess water, which can be reused in processing additional batches of sulfide ore. The final product of the thickening stage is a combination of 30% copper and other metals; this copper concentrate is then sent to the smelter.
