Abstract

The development of scientifically grounded technologies for the processing of industrial wastes containing non-ferrous and precious metals is an important direction for improving the economic efficiency of mining and metallurgical production. This article presents a technological scheme for the integrated extraction of copper and precious metals from off-balance mixed copper ores of the “Yoshlik–I” deposit. Based on experimental studies, the developed technology was implemented in practice at MOF-1 of Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex (AMMC). The research established the optimal parameters for two-stage beneficiation of mixed copper ores using a Knelson concentrator. As a result, the gold recovery reached up to 78%, while the comprehensive copper extraction exceeded 85.4% with additional copper recovery operations.
