Copper crusher

Copper crusher also named copper ore crusher is a stone crusher or rock crusher used for crushing copper ore materials applied widely in copper mining industry. Copper crusher is usually used as primary crushing machine or crusher equipment in copper production line , copper crushing plants, etc.

mobile crusher as a copper ore crusher concept is fully adaptable to all mobile crushing needs, it set up a new range of business opportunities for contractors, quarry operators, recycling and mining applications. NFLG mobile crushing plant can eliminate the obstacles of the crushing places and circumstances, and offer the high efficient and low cost project plants for the client.

Copper ore crusher

Copper ore crusher is the crushing plant specially designed for copper ore crushing. Copper ore crushing plant is the key machine since copper ore can only be used if it was processed into powder and copper ore crusher is in the first part of the process. As the hardness of copper ore between 2 and 2.5, NFLG aggregate crushing plant can process the copper ore as easy as turning its hand over. NFLG copper ore crusher includes jaw crusher , cone crusher , impact crusher , mobile crusher and vertical shaft impact crusher.

As to the application, not only can our copper ore crusher process copper ore, but can it also process stones like limestone , sandstone, pebble, basalt, bauxite, marble, gypsum, dolomite, kaolin, iron ore , aggregate, coal and cement, etc. And NFLG copper ore crusher is widely used in cement making industry, building, sand making, metallurgical industry, etc.

The use of copper

Most copper is used for electrical equipment (60%); construction, such as roofing and plumbing (20%); industrial machineri, such as heat exchangers (15%) and alloys (5%). The main long established copper alloys are bronze, brass (a copper-zinc alloy), copper-tin-zinc, which was strong enough to make guns and cannons, and was known as gun metal, copper and nichel, known as cupronickel, which was the preferred metal for low-denomination coins. Copper is ideal for electrical wiring because it is easily worked, can be drawn into fine wire and has a high electrical conductivity.

Copper ores is the ore contains copper. In nature Copper ores may refer to: Bornite, Chalcocite, Chalcopyrite, Cuprite, Malachite, Tennantite, Tetrahedrite

Copper crushing

When the copper ore come out from the ground, It is loaded into a 300 ton truck for transport to the crusher. The complete copper crushing plant includes jaw crusher as primary crusher, impact crusher and cone crusher. After crushed, the copper ore must be screened out according to size by screening machine and distribute the classified ore to a series of conveyors, for transportation to the mill for further processing.

In the copper ore grinding process, rod mill, ball mill and regrind ball mill are used. Ball mill is the most common copper ore grinding mill in copper ore concentrator.

NFLG can supplies a complete crushing plant for copper mining in Chile, Peru, USA, Congo, Zambia, KZ, Mexico, Belgium, Germany, Zaire, and can also design the special crushing plant according to your requirements.

Copper ore processing

The whole copper ore processing line consists of jaw copper pre crusher, ball copper ore mill, classifier, magnetic separator, flotation machines, thickener, dryers and other major equipments. Aggregate screen , bucket elevator and aggregate feeder can also be used in this copper ore processing.

The whole process of copper ore crusher is that:
Firstly copper ore is exploited from the mine and massive copper ores are delivered to the processing from the copper ore feeder. Copper ore feeder conveys copper ores into the primary copper ore crusher and they get crushed. Then the semi-finished copper ore particles are conveyed by belt conveyor to the secondary copper ore crusher. The products of secondary copper ore crusher can be transported into copper ore mill and get grinded into copper ore powder. Then the copper ore can get processed in chemical treatment.

Copper Crushing Washing and Screening Using in Copper Mining

Comparing the operation efficiency of CS cone crusher and hydraulic cone crusher, we find CS cone crusher achieved better results in tertiary crushing. And if installing the same number of secondary and tertiary crushers , a part of operation is transmitted from tertiary to secondary crushers where the liner wear is three times less, which significantly influences on the cost reduction in the crushing process.

As a major mining crushing equipment manufacturer in China, we can supply our clients with jaw crusher, cone crusher, impact crusher and industrial grinding mill etc. Our jaw crusher is a good primary crusher, our impact crusher is widely used as secondary crusher, our cone crusher including CS cone crusher, hydraulic cone crusher can be used as secondary crusher and tertiary crusher. Beyond this, we also supply ball mill, vertical mill , Raymond mill , trapezium mill etc. to our clients.

Copper mining process

There are two distinct types of copper ore, the sulfide ore and the oxide ore. The sulfide ores are beneficiated in flotation cells, while the oxide ores are generally leached.

First the copper ore from a open pit mine is blasted, loaded and transported to the primary crushers. Then the ore is crushed and screened, with the fine sulfide ore (<0.5 mm) going to froth flotation cells for recovery of copper. The coarser ore goes to the heap leach, where the copper is subjected to a dilute sulfuric acid solution to dissolve the copper. Then the leach solution containing the dissolved copper is subjected to a process called solvent extraction (SX). The SX process concentrates and purifies the copper leach solution, so the copper can be recovered at a high electrical current efficiency by the electrowinning cells.

It does this by adding a chemical reagent to the SX tanks which selectively binds with and extracts the copper, is easily separated from the copper (stripped), recovering as much of the reagent as possible for re-use. The concentrated copper solution is dissolved in sulfuric acid and sent to the electrolytic cells for recovery as copper plates (cathodes). From the copper cathodes, it is manufactured into wire, appliances, etc. that are used in every day life. Below are some photos of the process equipment at an Arizona Copper Mine.
