What is primary and secondary copper? Customarily, primary production is the output from ores, and secondary production is produced from recycling scrap. (Gómez et al., 2007). To extract primary copper from copper ore, there are two technologies, hydrometallurgy for low-grade like oxidized copper ore and pyrometallurgy for sulfide copper ore.

117· The mineralogical characteristics of the ore have been described in previous work (Adamides, 2001), with secondary copper minerals (chalcocite, covellite, delafossite, chrysocolla) at higher levels, and occurrence of chalcopyrite at depth, also in association with secondary minerals.
Recycled copper (also known as secondary copper) cannot be distinguished from primary copper (copper originating from ores), once reprocessed.
199151· Three assemblages of ores have been recognized at the Proterozoic porphyry copper deposit, Malanjkhand, India. They are: (1) primary ore containing chalcopyrite and pyrite; (2) moderately oxidized ore containing chalcocite, covellite, bornite, and other secondary copper sulfides; and (3) intensely oxidized ore containing copper sulphates, carbonates, chlorides, …
The secondary mineral assemblages in the ore zone are mainly iron, copper, and magnesium sulphates, whereas the lakeshore assemblage is dominated by magnesium-, calcium-, sodium-, and aluminum-bearing sulphate minerals.

Copper has been critical in the history of Cyprus - the Greek name for the ore - kupros - comes from the word Cyprus. A Cyprus Museum display (now …
2024916· Our research revealed that the ceramics were exclusively used for copper-based secondary metallurgical activities. This project, the first in Cypriot archaeometallurgy to focus solely on technical ceramics, adds significant new knowledge to the reconstruction of the copper production organisation and Enkomi’s standing among the LC polities.

2024118· Ancient Cyprus, renowned for its rich archaeological heritage, played a pivotal role in the early exploitation of ore resources, particularly copper. The island’s ancient copper mines in Cyprus significantly influenced regional trading networks and technological development.
1 Oxidation Zones of Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide Deposits in the Troodos Ophiolite, Cyprus: Targeting Secondary Copper Deposits Submitted by Daniel Bijan Parvaz to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Resources C, March 2014.
Glencore is one of the world’s leading producers and marketers of copper. We extract and process copper ore in South America, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Australia. In North America, we recycle copper scrap. In addition, we smelt and refine copper. We supply a wide range of customers from the automotive, electronics and construction sectors. Copper …

927· Fine-grained and disseminated pyrite is also present in this zone. Secondary copper minerals usually filling veins that cut host rocks and the ore body. Goethite and iron oxides are the main alteration products. Analytical methods Around 70 samples of both deposits and related rocks were collected from exposures in open pits.

The material produced from ores and concentrates is referred to as primary copper production. Secondary copper can also be produced by recycling …
The secondary mineral assemblages in the ore zone are mainly iron, copper, and magnesium sulphates, whereas the lakeshore assemblage is dominated by magnesium-, calcium-, sodium-, and aluminum-bearing sulphate minerals. Near the lakeshore, the highly soluble iron sulphate salts dissolve in the lake water, increasing its iron content.
86· Copper has been around forever but collecting copper minerals has caught fire as of late. Learn about different types, how copper forms and where it is mined.
The Phoenicians and Remans, who worked the great mines on Cyprus and in the Rio Tinto area of southern Spain, made the early advances in copper explo- ration and mining methods. For example, the Ro- mans found nearly 100 lens-shaped ore bodies in the Rio Tinto copper district.
