The Detroit Copper Company started mining at Morenci, 16km south of Silver City, Arizona, in 1872. Copper Queen Consolidated Mining bought the property in 1885, with the company name changed to Phelps Dodge in 1917. Ninety years later in March 2007, Phelps Dodge merged with Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold, whose principal asset is the …

This strategy will ensure significant increases in throughput, typically anywhere from 5% to 16% has been observed. Each milling circuit is unique, and as such the goals and most optimal control strategy might differ for individual cases. Process IQ is an expert in implementing control systems for SAG and Ball milling circuits, making use of ...

Gold/silver base metal concentrate deportment. Smelters typically pay >95% (Au) and 90% (Ag) in copper and lead concentrates, but will only pay 60-70% (maximum, depending on degree of Pb/Zn smelter integration) for gold and silver in zinc concentrates. Cost drivers are also important in flowsheet selection, and are summarised in Table 3.

The Sterling Mine in Beatty, Nevada (Cathedral Gold Corporation) began life as an underground mine, with a reserve of 100,000 tons of ore at a grade of 11 grams gold/tonne (0.35 oz/ton). Over a fifteen year period, it mined and processed nearly one million tons, but never had enough ore reserves to justify a conventional mill.

by mill operating parameters. It is hoped that this work can be used as a precursor to the development of a model that can predict liberation given the various ranges of operating parameters. Mill speed, mill charge, ball size, and wet grinding are the parameters which have been selected for the present study. It is hoped that the analysis of the

In 1919, the Arizona-Bagdad Copper Company took over the claims, churn-drilled them, proved a section of the orebody, much as it is known todqy, and did underground work which resulted in small production. In 1925 and 1926, Arizona Bagdad conducted an interesting experiment in which the ore was leached in place.

The ability to process previously untreatable refractory ores, where gold is locked in sulphides, has opened a swathe of new opportunities for the Group to exploit both in the short and long term. In the short term, the POX Hub and associated flotation infrastructure at Malomir has unlocked the value of refractory gold which forms c. 60% of the ...

The Mining Process. 1. Mining – open pit and underground. To define the ore from the waste rock, samples are taken and assayed. Assay results are used to mark out areas of ore and waste rock, which are mined separately. Some of the harder areas require blasting to loosen the rock prior to excavation by hydraulic diggers.
