Get PriceHeap Leaching is an ancient process; leaching metals out of ore goes back nearly 500 years. Mines in Hungary recycled copper-bearing solutions through waste heaps in the 1550s, Spanish miners percolated acid solutions through large heaps of oxide copper ore on the banks of the Rio Tinto in 1752 and one of the classical methods for the manufacture of copperas (iron sulphate) was to heap up iron
Get PriceTHE PROGRESSION OF METALLURGICAL TESTWORK DURING HEAP LEACH DESIGN 31 Introduction Heap leaching is used extensively for the processing of copper and gold ores. Low capital and operating costs and simple atmospheric leach processes make heap leaching suitable for low-grade ores and small deposits.
