Copper removal from molybdenite concentrate prior to roasting has also been used in some industrial applications by means of leaching under atmospheric pressure with hydrochlo-ric acid, cyanide ion (Dorfler and Laferty, 1981) or with ferric chloride solution (Platzke and Harbuck, 1994). Recently, Ruiz and Padilla (1998) have developed a selective process with sodium dichromate for copper ...

The removal of molybdenum from a copper ore concentrate by sodium hypochlorite leaching was investigated. The results show that leaching time, liquid to solid ratio, leaching temperature, agitation speed, and sodium hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide concentrations all have a significant effect on the removal of molybdenum.

Molybdenum-rhenium extraction was unaffected by presence of chalcopyrite in the molybdenite concentrate; however, molybdenum extraction declines if the copper content, as chalcocite, exceeds 7 pct. High-purity molybdenum and rhenium compounds can be recovered from the electrolyzed reaction mass by liquid-solid separation, solvent extraction, and crystallization steps.

A molybdenite flotation concentrate was refined by selective removal of copper impurity with minimum dissolution of molybdenum in the concentrate. Copper is present in the concentrate mainly as copper sulphide, chalcopyrite. Investigations were carried out on the removal of the sulphide by their selective leaching in sodium cyanide, ferric chloride and ferric sulphate solutions. Approximately ...

Mixed mesophilic and extreme thermophilic bioleaching were evaluated to remove copper from the molybdenite concentrate. Bioleaching tests were carried out in shake flasks and in a 50-L bioreactor. The shake flask tests were performed with different inoculum size, solids density, pH, and temperature in order to identify optimum conditions. The highest amount of copper elimination, 75% was ...

In Quebec, the Gaspe Copper Company, a subsidiary of the Noranda group, currently operates a molybdenite flotation circuit to recover a one percent trace of this mineral in the chalcopyrite concentrate. The low levels of molybdenite preclude the use of flotation to remove molybdenum directly from the ore while scavenging of chalcopyrite concentrate for molybdenite yields a concentrate …

Copper-Molybdenum ores. Molybdenite (MoS2) is the predominant economic molybdenum mineral. While naturally very hydrophobic and can effectively be floated with just frother, addition of a hydrocarbon oil extender enhances its recovery. Making very pure moly concentrate grades is necessary for lubricant and oil additive applications so the challenge is primarily to effectively remove ...
