Question:
How is leaching carried out in case of low grade copper ores?
Answer:
For low grade copper ores, leaching is carried out with acid or bacteria in the presence of air. During this process, copper goes into the solution as Cu2+ ions.
The solution is then reacted with scrap iron or H2 to get metallic copper.
