Through the processing of mineralogical study on a copper ore from Jilin province in China, it found that the copper exist mostly with the form of chalcopyrite, and others exist with the form of copper oxide minerals which with complex ingredient. The copper oxide minerals are due to the altered of the edge of chalcopyrite, and have not formed the independent copper oxide ore. It belongs to unconventional hard-to-beneficiate copper ore. Coarse grinding fineness and bulk floatation was used to recover the copper oxide ore and copper sulfide ore by using amino double phosphoric acid and butylamine dithiophosphate as the collector. This process was similar to the carrier flotation and achieved an effective processing of the copper oxide ore and obtained a high-grade copper concentrate assaying 15.8% with a high recovery of 82.4%.

Copper ore is the main mineral for the large deposits. Copper minerals are mostly consisting of chalcopyrite, secondly consisting of bornite, there are traces of processing copper blue and malachite, the mineral is disseminated by coarse granularity. This mineral is easy to processing. Production process was using by the process of grinding-flotation. After grinding fineness, lime dosage, sodium sulfide dosage, collector and frother dosage, were determined by the open test. Closed circuit experiment was conducted by those optimal conditions identified in the above test, the recovery of copper concentrate is 88.38% and the grade of copper concentrate is 14.37%.

Based on the analysis of the properties of the copper ore from Jinggu area in Yunnan province, a suitable technical route was presented for processing of eligible copper concentrate and the main factors i.e. grinding fineness, Na2S dosage and collector dosage, affecting the quality of roughing concentration was investigated. On this basis, a close-circuit flotation test scheme was preceded, which obtained a high quality copper concentrate with Cu grade of 16.08%, copper recovery of 58.52%. The recovery of copper concentrate is much lower than the Cu recovery of roughing concentrate from the condition experiments. This may be contributed to the fact that fine slime carried by middling worsens the separation of copper minerals and gangues. The Mo was enriched in concentrate, which is significantly considered to recovery in further work.

Research object and aim. Flotation classification in closed-circuit grinding is a way of improving copper ore flotation indicators by reducing minerals overgrinding. Due to valuable components froth recovery with their uncovering in the process of grinding, loss of copper in flotation tailings with secondary slime are reduced significantly. The research aims to study the possibility to improve the flotation of copper ore based on the use of flotation classification in the closed-circuit grinding. Methodology. In order to solve the problem, laboratory studies on closed-circuit grinding experimental modeling were carried out in a mode with and without flotation classification of hydraulic classification discharge. In each grinding mode, five stages of closed-cycle simulation have been implemented. Flotation classification was carried out in froth flotation modes with froth treatment with and without the tapered chute. According to experimental results, the loss of copper has been determined with slime in hydraulic classification discharge and flotation classification, and flotation classification end-product balance was calculated when operating in the closed-circuit grinding. Summary. The obtained experimental data prove the possibility of improving copper ore flotation by reducing minerals overgrinding in the course of flotation classification in closed-circuit grinding. The technology of flotation classification with froth treatment in tapered chutes make it possible to obtain prime concentrate with 18% copper mass fraction when extracting 37.7% copper into it, and final tailings in flotation classification discharge with 0.13% copper mass fraction under 2% loss.

The mineral processing flow sheet and reagent system of flotation copper minerals from a large copper-iron deposit in Yunnan were fully investigated. The results indicate that the optimum conditions for flotation of copper minerals from the material were identified as grinding fineness of 85%, dosage of CaO at 2000g/t , dosage of Na2S at 200 g/t, dosage of butyl xanthate 40g/t. Under such a condition, a copper recovery of 88.17% with a concentrate grade of 26.86% was achieved from the material using a closed circuit flow sheet of "one-stage roughing flotation, one-stage cleaning flotation and one-stage scavenging flotation.

Through earliest experimental study to tailings of Yangla copper ore known that under the best conditions of the flotation process can be obtained a copper concentrate which copper grade of 1.43% and recovery was 29.71%. Due to copper minerals embedded in this materials at a very fine particle size, and closely symbiosis with iron content and quartz, lead to it difficult to enrichment through ore dressing methods. And copper minerals mainly exist in the form of sulfide copper mineral, it can not by leaching method for processing directly, thus put forward a process to deal with this materials of enriched concentrate conduct to sulfuric roasting-leaching, which on the premise of guaranteed cost is not high, ultimately achieve the goal of recycling all kinds of valuable elements. Through the test of low temperature sulphation roasting - leaching to the flotation of copper concentrate shows that under the conditions of temperature of 450 °C for copper concentrate roasting 135 minutes, and after the calcine cooling, then with concentration of 4% sulfuric acid and Liquid-solid ratio of 3:1 leaching of 80 minutes, ultimately available to the test targets of copper leaching rate of around 81%.

For the characteristic of the high oxidation ratio and the high intergrowth ratio,the copper ore belongs to a kind of refractory ore.It could not get qualified concentrate and high recovery with the traditional flowsheet and general reagent system.In the case of stable grade of copper concentrate,the recovery of copper using composite reagent system could have a reasonably improve,which could reach to 84.49% at the copper concentrate grade of Cu 20.91%.
