The copper production in the Alps began three thousand years BC, usually near ore deposits in Austria and Switzerland. For copper smelting, sulphidic ores like chalcopyrite and fahlores were used. Copper produced from fahlores was widely used in the Alps resulting in As and Sb contents in the metallic copper. Such copper alloys …
Technology of roasting Conclusions Reference Key words: roasting, dead roasting, Predominance area diagram Preamble Roasting is gas/solid reaction in which sulphide is converted to oxide or sulphate or even to metal. Whether roast product is oxide or sulphate or partially sulphide would depend on temperature and

Roasting. Calcination. Roasting is the process of heating ore in the presence of excess oxygen. (O 2). It is a displacement reaction. Mainly done for sulfide ores. Ore is converted to the oxide by heating below its melting point. Moisture present in the ore is not removed. A large amount of toxic, acidic, and metallic compounds are released.
