Funded Activity Summary

A novel low-energy process route for primary copper production utilising synergistic hydro- and pyro-metallurgical processes. With increasing demand for copper metal, there is an urgent need to find new ways to efficiently treat lower grade ores. The new process offers a way of significantly reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in primary copper production and making more efficient use of the world's copper resources.
